Louisiana senate passes bill to eliminate one of two majority-Black congressional districts

Louisiana's state senate voted 27-10 Thursday to pass a congressional map eliminating one of two majority-Black House districts. The redrawn map could give Republicans a 5-1 congressional majority. The bill now goes to the state house, where Republicans hold a supermajority and can likely pass it before a June 1 deadline.
