另外两个州的民主党高层正在提出重新划分国会地图的前景，以回应德克萨斯州的共和党人在白宫的敦促下准备采取同样的行动。
伊利诺伊州州长JB Pritzker周二表示，民主党人可以“抗衡”共和党人在德克萨斯州的行动，并表示，如果德克萨斯州试图重新绘制地图，以帮助共和党人保持对国会的控制，州长们“必须团结起来解决这个问题，至少要试图阻止他们”。
每次人口普查后，各州必须每10年重绘一次地图。在白宫的敦促下，德克萨斯州州长格雷格·艾伯特(Greg Abbott)要求德克萨斯州立法机构今年夏天重新审视其地图，这可能会重新划分蓝色席位，并帮助共和党人在2026年保持对国会的控制。
“我认为我们应该遵守规则，各位，我认为我们应该在2026年举行选举，”普利兹克说。“我们将看到谁在国会中领先。但是我认为总统想要的欺骗方式是不正当的。我们都应该站出来反对它。”
伊利诺伊州在2020年人口普查后重新绘制了有利于民主党的地图，拥有17个国会选区。目前，该州民主党和共和党在代表团中的比例为14比3。
马里兰州众议院多数党领袖大卫·穆恩也提出了重新审视该州国会地图的前景。目前，该州八个众议院席位中的七个由民主党人占据。

Democrats in 2 more states could redraw congressional districts
Top Democrats in two more states are raising the prospect of redistricting their congressional maps in response to Republicans in Texas preparing to do the same at the urging of the White House.
Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker on Tuesday suggested that Democrats could "counter balance" Republicans' actions in Texas and said governors are "all going to have to band together to address that, at least to try to stop them" if Texas tries to redraw the map to help Republicans keep control of Congress.
States are required to redraw their maps every 10 years after each Census. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, at the urging of the White House, is asking the Texas legislature to revisit its map this summer, which could redraw blue seats and help Republicans maintain control of Congress in 2026.
"I think we ought to play by the rules, everybody, and I think we ought to have an election in 2026," Pritzker said. "We'll see who comes out ahead in the Congress. But I think cheating the way the president wants to is improper. We all ought to stand up against it.”
Illinois, which redrew its map to benefit Democrats after the 2020 Census, has 17 congressional districts. Currently, the state has a 14-3 split in the delegation between Democrats and Republicans.
Maryland House Majority Leader David Moon also raised the prospect of revisiting the state's congressional map. Currently, seven of the state's eight House seats are held by Democrats.
"Seems Trump has convinced Texas, Missouri&others, and FWIW TX did it years ago&got away with it because nobody responded.#mdga26", Moon posted on X
