Left-wing ‘squad’ member Rep. Jasmine Crockett could be out of Congress after a new redistricting map was approved by a committee in the GOP-controlled Texas House on Friday.
The new map creates five more Republican-dominated seats by eliminating current Democrat-held seats including one held by Crockett, who represents constituents near Houston.
“I currently don’t live in the [Congressional District] 30 that they created…that’s not where I live now,” Crockett said on Saturday in response to the newly drawn map.
The Democrat accused state Republicans of creating the redistricting controversy, even after soliciting input from her and other incumbent members of Congress about their home addresses.
“They are supposed to take that into consideration, and these are some of the things that the court will look at when they’re trying to determine whether or not there were problems with creating the maps,” Crockett complained, per The Grio. “It’s really awful.”
