Indiana Republican lawmakers are meeting at the White House on Tuesday, potentially to discuss redrawing congressional maps. President Trump wants to help Republicans gain House seats before the 2026 midterms, putting pressure on states like Indiana to redraw their districts. This follows similar efforts in Texas and California, creating a nationwide redistricting battle. While Indiana Republicans hold a majority of seats, there's debate and skepticism about altering the maps so soon. The meeting aims to influence Indiana to change districts, potentially impacting one or two Democratic representatives. The White House hopes to secure more Republican seats before the next election.
