News
Amanda Pusczek is in the news because Alabama’s primary elections are being reshaped by a court-ordered redistricting fight that has delayed some U.S. House primaries until August. The changes are part of a broader battle over control of the 2026 House majority. A separate recent item tied to Alabama politics focused on voting rights fallout after a Supreme Court ruling, but it did not directly report new actions by Pusczek.
