Vice President JD Vance is defending the new congressional map recently approved by the Texas Senate.
Appearing on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Vance claimed that Democratic gerrymandering has made GOP redistricting efforts necessary. Vance said Republicans are trying to make the national situation “a little more fair.”
The map was adopted early Saturday on a party-line vote over fierce Democratic opposition. President Trump had called for the new map to increase the House majority ahead of the midterm elections.
