California Republican leaders are fighting back against a proposal that Democrats released last week to redraw congressional district boundaries.

The proposed congressional districts are fueling a redistricting battle at the Texas Capitol and could have national consequences. A bipartisan war is already brewing across the U.S.

Democratic lawmakers in Texas returned to the state on Monday, ending a two-week walkout that broke quorum and temporarily blocked Republican efforts to redraw congressional maps at the behest of U.S.

The Texas House gaveled in at noon with Democratic members present, marking an official end to the quorum break.
