Three federal challenges to Tennessee redistricting now assigned to same judge

Three federal challenges to Tennessee's redrawn congressional districts have been assigned to U.S. District Judge William Campbell, Jr. The lawsuits, brought by the ACLU, NAACP, and League of Women Voters, argue the new maps split Memphis into three districts, diluting Black voting power and violating constitutional protections. The redistricting followed a Republican-led legislative session after the U.S. Supreme Court weakened parts of the Voting Rights Act.
