Redistricting Tennessee and what comes next?

from The AM/DM · host The Daily Memphian

Last week, in the wake of a U.S. Supreme Court decision, the Tennessee General Assembly redrew the state's Congressional districts in a three-day special session. The stated idea of the new map was to flip Tennessee's last remaining Democratic-leaning district to Republican in the next federal election, which is in November. Metro editor Jane Donahoe says Memphis often makes more national news than it should for a city of its size, and last week was no exception.  Plus: City Council will consider a resolution opposing new Congressional district lines Ghost River goes back to its beginnings and adds music A long-planned development in one of Memphis' older neighborhoods is moving forward Declining birth rates impact enrollment in Shelby County's suburban schools Tomato prices spike as weather and supply chains squeeze growers and retailers Collierville considers restrictions for e-bikes and motorized scooters
