Statement summary
Jeffries posted that the U.S. Supreme Court had upheld a Virginia Supreme Court decision on redistricting that threw out a map approved by millions of voters. He said Republicans now want the same justices to "OVERTURN a clearly-decided Missouri Supreme Court decision they don't like", and that "The American people are watching".
“The U.S. Supreme Court UPHELD a Virginia Supreme Court decision on redistricting that threw out a map approved by millions of voters. MAGA Republicans now want those same conservative Justices to do the exact opposite and OVERTURN a clearly-decided Missouri Supreme Court decision they don’t like. The American people are watching.”
Post from Jeffries's official congressional account, a government-verified account, about the request to the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn the Supreme Court of Missouri's decision.
The reference point is use of the 2025 map in the 2026 general election. Jeffries criticizes the Republican effort to have the U.S. Supreme Court overturn the Missouri ruling that put the 2022 map in place for November. He does not name the 2025 map, but that ruling is what bars its use, so his criticism opposes using it. The closest competing label, “Challenged the characterization”, loses because he objects to the effort itself and not to a description of it.
