Reps. Beasley and Jeter say it’s time for the parties to work together to pass redistricting reform.

Federal judges have ruled that North Carolina’s congressional district map drawn by legislative Republicans is illegally gerrymandered because of excessive partisanship that gave the GOP a rock-solid advantage for most seats.

The decision is the first time a court has ever struck down a redistricting plan in North Carolina as a partisan gerrymander.
