News
Jon Henry is in the news because GOP-led states are redrawing congressional maps after a Supreme Court ruling narrowed how Voting Rights Act claims are judged. The changes affect several majority-Black districts and are likely to lead to more legal fights ahead of the 2028 election cycle. The reporting does not give more specific details about Henry’s role in the dispute.
