On Oct. 27, 2025, Gov. Mike Braun announced he is calling for a special legislative session to tackle two key issues: redrawing Indiana's congressional district boundaries and aligning state tax codes with new federal provisions. Following Texas' move to redraw their state's congressional maps in August of 2025, responses had emerged in other parts of the U.S., including Indiana. Currently, Republicans hold seven of Indiana's nine congressional seats, with Democrats holding the other two. The typical redistricting process occurs every 10 years following the U.S. Census. The last congressional redistricting in Indiana happened in 2021. The redistricting efforts have triggered some support, but also protests, petition drives, ad campaigns and lawsuits.
