News
Amanda Pusczek is in the news because Alabama’s primaries are being shaped by a court-ordered redistricting fight that has delayed some U.S. House contests until August. The broader battle is tied to control of the U.S. House in 2026. The available summaries do not give any specific new action or statement from Pusczek herself, so her direct role is unclear.
