Gerrymandering by Stealth: DeSantis' Unconstitutional Maps The battle over congressional maps in Florida has begun, pitting Governor Ron DeSantis against advocacy groups who claim his new district lines are unconstitutional.

The controversy centers on whether the language of those amendments has been superseded by federal law.
