Missouri state House passes Trump-backed congressional map

Missouri Republicans approved a map favoring GOP in 7 of 8 districts, part of a national GOP effort to secure House control ahead of 2026 midterms, despite Democratic protests.

  • Missouri's Republican-led House passed a congressional map backed by President Donald Trump, aiming to help Republicans win seven out of eight U.S. House seats.
  • The redistricting plan faces Democratic objections, with accusations of gerrymandering and a constitutional challenge from the Missouri NAACP asserting it violates state law.
  • The revised map targets Congressman Emanuel Cleaver's 5th District, aiming to dilute Democratic voter strength by extending its boundaries into rural areas.
  • The Missouri House approved the plan by a 90-65 vote, with some Republicans opposing it and calls for a referendum to block it from taking effect.
