投票权利团体起诉得克萨斯州, 声称新的重新划区地图会削弱黑人选民的影响力。 Voting-rights groups sue Texas, claiming new redistricting map weakens Black voter influence.

包括有色人种协进会(NAACP)在内的选民权利倡导者就德克萨斯州国会重新划分选区的新地图对得克萨斯州提起诉讼,声称该地图带有种族偏见,削弱了黑人选民的选举影响力。 Voting-rights advocates, including the NAACP, have filed a lawsuit against Texas over its new congressional redistricting map, claiming it is racially biased and weakens the electoral influence of Black voters. 该诉讼指控得克萨斯州参与拉皮条,阻止少数选民选举优先候选人,违反了《投票权法》。 The lawsuit accuses Texas of engaging in gerrymandering to prevent minority voters from electing preferred candidates, violating the Voting Rights Act. 该地图增加了五个有利于共和党人的新区,并已得到得克萨斯州立法者的批准。 The map adds five new districts favoring Republicans and has been approved by Texas lawmakers. 该诉讼试图阻止地图的使用,认为地图违宪。 The lawsuit seeks to block the map's use, arguing it is unconstitutional.
