Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer criticized the Supreme Court's 6-3 ruling to strike down a Louisiana voting map, calling it an 'awful decision' and a significant blow to the 1965 Voting Rights Act. The court held that creating majority-minority districts can lead to unconstitutional racial gerrymandering.
