Texas Republicans have proposed a mid-decade redistricting plan to redraw congressional district lines, aiming to flip up to five Democratic-held seats in Houston, Dallas, Austin/San Antonio, and the Rio Grande Valley for the 2026 midterms, creating a 30R-8D map to strengthen their U.S. House majority.
In response, at least 51 Texas House Democrats staged a walkout on August 3, 2025, fleeing to Illinois to break quorum and block the proposal, highlighting the intense political battle over redistricting in a state where such moves are rare outside decennial census cycles.
