New York Republicans blasted Gov. Kathy Hochul's pledges to push for a partisan redrawing of the state's congressional boundaries in response to Texas's redistricting fight.

Flanked by Texas Democratic lawmakers who fled their state to block a vote on a new congressional map that would flip five Democrat-held House seats to the GOP, Hochul said New York Democrats would explore "every option to redraw our state congressional lines as soon as possible" to stop Trump's "legal insurrection against our Capitol."

ALBANY, New York — Gov. Kathy Hochul openly embraced the full-fledged gerrymandering of congressional districts in New York to favor Democrats on Monday, marking a significant shift in her push to combat similar pro-Republican changes in states like Texas.
