The U.S. Justice Department has joined Republican leaders in a lawsuit aiming to block California’s Proposition 50 map. While GOP officials claim the map unconstitutionally favors Latino voters, state authorities question the basis of the challenge. Both sides are gearing up for a significant legal fight that could reshape local political representation.

The Justice Department has asked a court to remove three board members of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting who were fired by President Trump. This legal move seeks to enforce the presidential decision and could impact the leadership of public broadcasting.
