Congressional Republicans Back Early Redistricting Idea

Indiana’s Republicans in the U.S. House are united behind the effort to redistrict the Hoosier state in time for the 2026 election. That is part of President Trump’s plan to win one or two more GOP seats in the state.
      
State House Republicans, however, have not said they are behind the politically-charged proposal. House Speaker Todd Huston says they “had a good conversation” after a two-hour meeting Monday, but gave no details on where they stand. States only redraw their voting maps every ten years after the U.S. Census, but Trump is pushing for it to happen now.
