Montgomery, Ala. — Alabama lawmakers on Friday approved legislation enabling new U.S. House primaries if courts permit the state to use different congressional districts, and the bill was sent to Republican Gov. Kay Ivey; the move followed a U.S. Supreme Court decision in a Louisiana case that changed Voting Rights Act enforcement and spurred regional redistricting activity. Lawmakers in Tennessee enacted new districts Thursday that alter a Black-majority Memphis seat, Louisiana postponed primaries as it redraws maps, and South Carolina considered moving its congressional primary to Aug. 11, 2026; civil-rights groups have filed lawsuits and state courts are reviewing plans, and officials face imminent filing and certification deadlines.
