The Supreme Court will decide whether Louisiana’s congressional map, with two majority-Black districts, violates the Voting Rights Act or the Equal Protection Clause.
The U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments on October 15 in Louisiana v. Callais, a case testing the future of the Voting Rights Act’s Section 2, which prohibits race-based voting discrimination.
The case centers on Louisiana’s 2024 congressional map, which includes two majority-Black districts.
While federal judges previously upheld the map as compliant with the Act, opponents argue race was the primary factor in redistricting, violating constitutional principles.
The state’s attorney general switched sides, claiming the second district violates the Equal Protection Clause.
The Court’s decision could significantly weaken or dismantle a key civil rights law, with broad implications for minority voting rights nationwide.
El Tribunal Supremo decidirá si el mapa del Congreso de Louisiana, con dos distritos mayoritariamente negros, viola la Ley de Derechos de Voto o la Cláusula de Igualdad de Protección.
