The Supreme Court granted Alabama a stay of a lower court injunction, permitting the state's 2023 redistricting map—which contains one majority-Black district in a state where Black residents comprise about 27 percent of the population—to be used in the 2026 elections. The unsigned per curiam order halts a district court ruling that found violations of Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act and the 14th Amendment. Justice Sotomayor dissented, joined by Justices Kagan and Jackson.
