April 29, 2026, Fairfax, Va.—Americans for Limited Government Executive Director Robert Romano today issued the following statement agreeing with the Supreme Court’s 6-3 ruling in Louisiana v. Callais that an “additional majority-minority district… is an unconstitutional racial gerrymander” under the Fourteenth Amendment:

“The Supreme Court has correctly ruled that race-based formulas for drawing Congressional or any other districts are an unconstitutional violation of the Fourteenth Amendment’s equal protection of the laws. In so doing, the Supreme Court has now made it necessary for every state that presently has Congressional Districts that were drawn explicitly based on racial considerations to redraw their maps — every one of them, not just Louisiana — as they will surely now be facing further legal challenges, including those that were most impacted by the Voting Rights Act like Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Florida and others. It’s not a question of should but of must. That is, under the Fourteenth Amendment’s equal protection of the laws, districts can be drawn with partisanship in mind, with economics in mind, but not race, on that, the Constitution is clear.”
