LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Indiana's Senate Republicans don't have the votes to pass a new congressional map, according to a spokesperson for Majority Leader Rodric Bray.

“The votes aren’t there for redistricting,” Molly Swigart said in a emailed statement. 

The news comes a week after Vice President JD Vance visited Indianapolis as the White House pressures the solidly Republican state to redraw it’s congressional map. GOP Gov. Mike Braun has said a legislative session on redistricting will likely happen.

President Donald Trump and Vance have pressed Indiana lawmakers to redraw the state's congressional districts to try to expand Republicans' current 7-2 edge over Democrats.
