Trump's redistricting push hits roadblocks in Indiana and Kansas as Republican lawmakers resist
Republicans in Indiana and Kansas are resisting pressure from President Donald Trump to redraw congressional districts. Despite the White House push, Republicans in those Midwestern states say they lack the votes to pass new GOP-friendly maps. This resistance is a rare setback for the Republican president as he aims to cement control of the House in the 2026 elections. Indiana's state Senate leader says the chamber doesn't have enough support to redistrict. In Kansas, Republican leaders are struggling to overcome the Democratic governor's opposition to mid-decade redistricting. The pushback reflects a broader debate over fairness and political strategy.
