California Democrats passed a trio of redistricting bills Thursday, a day after Republicans in the Texas House passed new maps of their own. Taken together, the package of bills backed by Democratic Gov.

After Texas moved forward on a new Trump-backed congressional map this week, California Gov. Gavin Newsom responded, "It's on," moving forward on his own redistricting plan that favors Democrats.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom used his Democratic supermajority to push a new congressional map that favors Democrats in an effort to nullify the expected new map from Texas.
