Congresswoman Johnson Addresses NAACP Texas 76th Annual Convention

Congresswoman Eddie Bernice Johnson discussed Texas redistricting at the 76th annual NAACP Texas Convention in Corpus Christie.
She discussed her central role in the various court cases on redistricting, and the Supreme Court decision that eventually ruled against the Republican drawn districts. Congresswoman Johnson vowed to continue to fight for two additional seats in North Texas saying, 'The demographic results from the census demand not one but two additional seats in North Texas, and the people deserve to be able to elect Representatives who are responsive to their needs and desires."
