During his remarks in an interview with Texas Democrats today, California Governor Gavin Newsom blasted the GOP for turning their backs on those affected by tragic flooding in Texas to focus on Trump's partisan redistricting.

Gov. Gavin Newsom and Texas Democrats jointly promoted California’s plan to redraw congressional lines and offset a redistricting scheme in Texas. The proposed map is expected to be made public this week.

Newsom said his state will move forward with plans for a November special election that would allow Democrats to redraw congressional maps.
