Utah lawmakers passed a redistricted congressional map on Monday following a court-ordered redrawing for the 2026 elections in August.

The redrawing, which gives Democrats a glimmer of hope in two likely more competitive districts, comes alongside a national redistricting battle between blue and red states. The push-and-pull was initially sparked by Gov. Greg Abbott’s (R-TX) aggressive redrawing of Texas’s congressional map at the behest of President Donald Trump. Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) pushed back with California’s Proposition 50.
