Reactions
Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick (R) said "This map displays our collective delivery to making sure every Texan's phonation is heard in Washington, D.C. I want to thank all 31 senators for their difficult work, and especially Sen. Huffman for her leadership throughout the redistricting process."[18]
Country Sen. Jose Menendez (D) said the proposed map of congressional districts failed to admit that "people of color ... all deserve equal representation." "We cannot continue to govern without addressing the fact that race matters. Race exists. Nosotros had 95% growth in minorities, and we have no new minority opportunity districts, and that is simply wrong," Menéndez said.[19]
How does redistricting in Texas work? In Texas, both congressional and state legislative district boundaries are drawn by the Texas State Legislature. These lines are subject to veto past the governor.[20]
If the state legislature is unable to approve a state legislative redistricting plan, a fill-in commission must draw the lines (the backup committee is non involved in congressional redistricting). This fill-in commission, established in 1948, comprises the post-obit members:[xx]
- Lieutenant governor
- Speaker of the Texas House of Representatives
- Attorney general
- Land comptroller
- Commissioner of the General Country Office
The Texas Constitution requires that state legislative districts be contiguous and "that they preserve whole counties when population mandates permit."[20]

Following the 2010 United States Census, Texas gained four congressional seats. Texas' final congressional redistricting plan was canonical by the Texas Legislature and signed past Gov. Rick Perry (R) in June 2013.[21] [22] [23]
In redistricting, The Hill published a list of the Superlative X Business firm Members who were helped by redistricting.[24] Francisco Canseco ranked 3rd on the list.[24] The commodity notes that in the redistricting procedure, Republican legislators were "careful when they redrew the district not to bring down the district'southward Hispanic percentage in order to avert violating the Voting Rights Act, which protects minority voters."[24] Instead, redistricting switched out high-voting Democratic Hispanic areas with areas that have lower turnout.[24]
