Impermissible Racial Gerrymandering and Lack of Alternative Maps The Florida Supreme Court on Thursday upheld the state's current congressional redistricting map, rejecting a legal challenge that sought to restore a majority-Black district in north Florida.

Justices, in a 5-1 decision, said an alternative requested by voting-rights groups for a North Florida district would violate the U.S. Constitution’s Equal Protection Clause because it would involve racial gerrymandering.

President Donald Trump asked the US Supreme Court to turn away a challenge to his sweeping tariffs, telling the justices they should let the legal fight develop before getting involved.
