The Supreme Court Will Examine Partisan Gerrymandering in 2017 - gabrielle - 02-07-2017

Quote:In 2017, the Supreme Court will take up the issue of partisan gerrymandering. Depending on how the court rules, its decisions could have far-reaching implications for the partisan balance in the U.S. House of Representatives and state legislatures — and for the future of redistricting across the country.

Yeah Chucky Schumer tried that with Goresuch and ended up blowing up the filibuster. And a bout time too. Maybe the Senate can get back to doing the people's work now that they don't require sixty votes to name a post office.
