| https://fields.house.gov/media/press-releases/statement-congressman-fields-supreme-courts-continuation-louisiana-v-callais | A Statement from Congressman Fields on the Supreme Court’s Continuation in the Louisiana v. Callais Proceedings | 2025-06-27 | 2025 | 2025-06 | Democrat | House | LA | Cleo Fields | F000110 | fields.house.gov | fields | https://fields.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | Washington, DC – Today, the Supreme Court announced that Louisiana v. Callais, a case regarding Louisiana’s congressional map that was approved by the Louisiana legislature, will be reargued during the Supreme Court’s next term, beginning in October. The congressional map in question was first enacted by the state legislature in January 2024, and is a direct result of bipartisan collaboration across party and racial lines. “I have said from the very beginning that politics, not race, was the predominant factor in drawing this map,” Congressman Fields explains. “Since voting rights were extended to all citizens, irrespective of race or gender, there has been a continuous effort to protect and ensure those rights are upheld. While many were looking forward to receiving clarity on this matter today, this decision does not change anything in the immediate future for the people of Louisiana. I look forward to continuing to serve the people of the sixth district as the legal and judicial process continues.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T01:08:28Z |
