"Several prominent Trump loyalists have been conscripted into compliance, while others are in outright rebellion.

At least two Republican House members are in the unusual position of putting their necks out and resisting President Trump in his drive to redraw new congressional maps before the 2026 midterms. They say they have their constituents’ best interests at heart, but they are also looking out for their own. They’re trying to stop a retaliatory war to save their seats in Congress and retain what GOP congressional representation they’re clinging to in predominantly blue states like California and New York.

On the other side of the partisan divide, at least one prominent Democratic-leaning group, Common Cause, which for years has fought against all types of gerrymandering across the country, is in transition. Once a reliable voice of opposition to gerrymandering, the group is now reconsidering its redistricting mission."
