June 27, 2023, 12:37 PMdecision on Tuesday rejecting a theory
Yet the dispute over the map itself is now moot -- and the court did not rule on whether the lines had to be redrawn. "Today the United States Supreme Court has determined that state courts may rule on questions of state law even if it has an impact on federal elections law.

I am proud of the work we did to pursue this case to the nation's highest court," state House Speaker Tim Moore, R, said.
