Senate Approves Redistricting Bill in Texas
A Senate committee approved a congressional redistricting bill in Austin aimed at preventing incumbents from facing each other. Senator Ralph Hall praised its contiguity, alignment with 1960 census figures, and preservation of towns like Gregg Smith, Midland Odessa, Brazoria County, and Teague in a Dallas County district. The bill differs from the House version by keeping Teague in South Dallas County and altering Districts 2 and 6 in East Texas.
