Jasmine Crockett One Step Closer to Being Redistricted Out of Office

Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett (TX) is facing a political earthquake after Texas Republicans advanced a sweeping mid-decade redistricting plan that could eliminate her seat entirely — and leave her outside the district she currently represents.

Crockett, a first-term congresswoman from Dallas known for combative exchanges, has frequently lashed out against the plan to dismantle five Democratic-held U.S. House districts in Austin, Dallas, Houston, and South Texas, reshaping the state’s political map to favor Republicans heading into the 2026 midterm elections.

One of the biggest casualties is Crockett’s 30th Congressional District. Under the new boundaries, she would no longer reside within the district’s lines — a major complication for any re-election bid.

“I currently don’t live in the [Congressional District] 30 that they created… that’s not where I live now,” Crockett said. “They are supposed to take that into consideration, and these are some of the things that the court will look at when they’re trying to determine whether or not there were problems with creating the maps. It’s really awful.

Crockett slammed the plan as a “hot mess” and accusing Republicans of racial targeting, pointing out that several affected districts are held by black Democrats, including veteran Houston Rep. Al Green, famous for repeatedly and futilely attempting to impeach former President Donald Trump.
