Tennessee Redistricting Ruled Invalid

Tennessee’s NAACP sues governor over new congressional maps that allegedly diluted Black voting power in Memphis, but the court dismisses the case—finding no direct harm shown and ruling that governors and legislatures can’t be sued this way. The lawsuit came after a Supreme Court ruling allowed redrawing districts, prompting a special session led by Governor Bill Lee. The move triggered immediate political fallout, including Rep. Steve Cohen’s announcement he won’t run again in his redrawn district. With the legal challenge thrown out, the current map stands—for now—reshaping Tennessee’s political future heading into the next election cycle.
