Texas' proposed congressional map would push a handful of Democratic incumbents into nearby districts already occupied by another Democrat, leaving some with the prospect of battling each other for the dwindling seats in next year’s primaries, retiring, or taking their chances in GOP districts.
Draft Texas congressional map pits Democratic incumbents against each other, spelling possible primary clashes
Multiple Democratic members have been packed into blue districts in Austin, Dallas and Houston to make way for newly crafted Republican districts in those areas.

Prime Day thoughts: Shopping in person poses access challenges - transit, tight spaces, high shelves, rude comments. So, I value the access of online shopping.
But the companies that make online shopping more accessible and affordable are so deeply flawed and unethical. A frustrating catch-22.
