The Trump administration is attempting to block California’s new congressional map that was approved by voters last week, which would create five additional House districts favoring Democrats.
The Justice Department sought to intervene in a lawsuit on Thursday originally filed by the California Republican Party, which looks to prohibit the state from implementing new maps. Gov. Gavin Newsom and other California Democrats campaigned for the new map in response to President Donald Trump’s push to draw new maps in Texas and other states to create more Republican-leaning districts.
“California’s redistricting scheme is a brazen power grab that tramples on civil rights and mocks the democratic process,” Bondi said in a statement. “Governor Newsom’s attempt to entrench one-party rule and silence millions of Californians will not stand.”
