Redistricting bill heads to Texas House floor, could add 5 Republican seats
The bill is now headed to the Texas House for a vote on the floor. If passed, political analysts say the new map could create as many as five more Republican seats in Congress by shifting seats in major urban centers like Dallas, Austin and Houston. The first steps in that process could begin as early as the beginning of next week.
The push to redraw the map follows President Trump's urging of Texas Republicans to redraw the districts to secure five more Republican seats in the U.S. House.
