South Carolina’s House of Representatives advances a new congressional redistricting map that would redraw and effectively dismantle the district currently held by 17-term Democratic Rep. Jim Clyburn. Multiple outlets report the changes would alter the boundaries of Clyburn’s majority-Black district and are part of a broader Republican effort to weaken or potentially eliminate his seat ahead of upcoming elections. The proposed map is passed by the House and moves to the state Senate, where it would need approval before becoming law. The Hill reports the House passage occurs with a 74–37 vote shortly after midnight Wednesday, with several Republicans defecting and voting against the plan. Other reports describe the litigation and legal context around redistricting following changes to federal Voting Rights Act enforcement, which outlets say may shape how states redraw maps. Not all coverage agrees on the final outcome: one outlet says Republicans scrap redistricting and keep Clyburn’s district intact, suggesting the state may ultimately reject or block the plan at a later stage. Overall, the legislation’s next step is the state Senate, and the map’s fate depends on subsequent votes and any legal challenges.
