Pelosi highlighted the importance of redistricting in relation to Medicaid, Medicare, SNAP, and housing, stating it reflects the needs of the people rather than mere politics. Trump endorsed the Republican plan in Texas, asserting that the state has an opportunity for a gain of five congressional seats. In response to redistricting efforts, Texas Democrats fled the state to block the proposal, resulting in Republicans issuing civil arrest warrants for those absent legislators, with potential legislative seat vacancies being considered by the state Supreme Court.
Pelosi stated, "This redistricting is about Medicaid, it's about Medicare, it's about SNAP, it's about housing. It's so many things that the Republicans are not about that they voted against time and time and again. So this is not politics, it's about meeting the needs of the people."
Trump expressed support for the Texas Republicans' redistricting plan, emphasizing, "We have an opportunity in Texas to pick up five seats." He claimed, "I won Texas, I got the highest vote in the history of Texas, as you probably know, and we are entitled to five more seats."
