#Tennessee #Republicans on Wednesday proposed a congressional map aimed at diluting the state’s lone majority #Black district, a swift response to last week’s #SCOTUS ruling that weakened a landmark #VotingRights #law.

The new map slices #Memphis, a majority-Black city, & #ShelbyCounty into 3 districts & likely will give Republicans the ability to flip Tennessee’s lone remaining Democratic seat.
