Texas Enacts the 1st Mid-Decade Congressional Map Designed to Increase Republican Representation in Congress

On August 22, the legislature adopted HB 4 in a second special session initially convened on July 21. Governor Greg Abbott signed the mid-decade congressional map on the 29th after an earlier quorum fight stalled action. The House passed the map on August 20 by a vote of 88-52, and the Senate followed on August 23 with an 18-11 vote. The enacted plan is posted by the Texas Legislative Council as “PlanC2333”, with statewide PDFs and data available.
