BATON ROUGE. State senators moved this week to redraw Louisiana's six congressional districts after a recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling that limited the use of race in mapmaking; the Senate and Governmental Affairs Committee accelerated hearings and is scheduled to vote on proposed plans this Tuesday and send a proposal to the full Senate on Thursday. New proposals presented (SB116, SB121, SB130, SB407) include options that would retain two Black-majority districts or shift to 5-1 or 6-0 Republican advantages; lawmakers face a June 1 legislative deadline, several members reported threats after Friday's hearing, and Sen. Gary Carter voluntarily left the committee, replaced by Sen. Royce Duplessis.

Prepared by Lauren Mitchell and reviewed by editorial team.

Who Benefited

共和党议员和该州共和党获得筹码,得以推进快速的地图提案,这可能会增加共和党控制的国会席位,而立法领导层则优先在6月1日截止日期前将提案通过委员会。

Who Impacted

黑人社区和少数族裔领袖可能面临代表性减弱的风险,如果以黑人为主的选区被取消的话。此外,个别议员在争议性听证会后,还经历了威胁和敌意加剧的情况。
