Texas continues to play defense on redistricting questions

Abbott suggests he will take a pass on a second special session

Plaintiffs in the current redistricting challenge are drafting a new Congressional map to take to a three-judge panel in September, a move it now appears will be challenged by the state.

Comments from Gov. Greg Abbott would indicate the state will bypass a second special session and, once more, play defense on redistricting challenges.

In an interview with KXAN, Abbott talked about appealing the decision of the court.
