(Reuters) -The Democratic-controlled Virginia House of Delegates voted on Wednesday to amend the state constitution to allow legislators to redraw Virginia’s congressional maps next year, joining a multistate mid-decade restricting war spawned by President Donald Trump.
Passage of the resolution, on a party-line vote of 51-42, sent the measure to the Virginia state Senate, where the Democratic majority in that chamber is expected to approve the measure as well.
