Illinois black lawmakers gave House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) a firm reality check on Monday: any new congressional map that dilutes the black vote will be met with staunch opposition. 

Jeffries traveled to Chicago to meet with members of the Illinois Legislative Black Caucus and was joined by members of the U.S. delegation to Congress, including Reps. Danny Davis (D-IL), Jonathan Jackson (D-IL), Robin Kelly (D-IL), and Lauren Underwood (D-IL).
