Statement from Mayor Lucas on Missouri Congressional Map Ruling
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Mayor Quinton Lucas issued the following statement in response to a Jackson County judge's ruling today upholding Missouri's redrawn congressional maps:
"The ruling upholding Missouri's congressional maps is disappointing, but it is not the final word. The map was drawn under pressure from Washington to divide Kansas City, not to serve Kansas Citians.
"The fight is not over. The Missouri Supreme Court has yet to rule. Kansas City deserves representation that reflects our community, not maps drawn to serve partisan interests in Washington."
