The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) on Aug. 26 filed a motion seeking to block Texas’s newly enacted congressional map, arguing it “intentionally discriminates based on race.”
The NAACP filed the motion for a preliminary injunction in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas in El Paso, as part of a lawsuit that names the Texas governor and the Texas secretary of state as defendants.
