California and New York are signaling they will move forward with plans to redraw congressional lines as Democrats look to counter the Texas GOP. California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) said Monday that Democrats are pursuing a plan to put mid-decade redistricting before voters,

As Texas Republicans move ahead with redistricting to protect or even expand the GOP’s slim majority in the US House, Democratic-run states, led by California, are pushing forward with their own efforts to draw new maps and add Democratic seats.

"The governor's basically saying that he thinks what another state is doing is wrong, and therefore we should do it too," said Rep. Kevin Kiley.
