Republicans’ move to redraw U.S. House maps in Texas to benefit their party has set off a nationwide battle over redistricting.

Texas Democrats on Saturday again prevented their state’s House of Representatives from moving forward with a Trump-backed plan to redraw Texas' congressional map. That redistricting plan would give Republicans an advantage in keeping control of the House of Representatives in D.

Despite threats of arrest, losing their pay and other threats, calls from the governor, the majority of the Democrats did not appear for the special session when it started at 2 p.m. ET and no quorum was reached.
