US Politics Summary

In U.S. Politics, the Supreme Court is set to hear arguments regarding former President Donald Trump's contentious plan to roll back birthright citizenship for children born in the U.S. to undocumented immigrants.

This case could significantly impact immigration policy and citizenship rights. Additionally, GOP lawmakers are pushing for the Office of Personnel Management to halt taxpayer-funded healthcare plans that include coverage for elective abortions, claiming this violates federal law.

In state politics, Indiana's House GOP has advanced a congressional map aimed at creating more GOP-friendly districts ahead of the 2026 midterm elections, a move supported by Trump. Meanwhile, recent developments have seen the Supreme Court reinstating a Texas gerrymander that could provide Republicans with five additional House seats.

This ruling has raised concerns about the increasing entrenchment of partisan gerrymandering in U.S. politics.
