Democrats in Virginia are joining the national redistricting battle over U.S. House seats. Virginia House Speaker Don Scott says the chamber will convene Monday in a special session, but didn't state a reason. Four sources with direct knowledge of the plans told The Associated Press the purpose will include congressional redistricting aimed at gaining more Democratic-held seats. The sources spoke to AP on condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to publicly discuss the plans. Virginia would become the second state, after California, with a Democratic-led legislature to take up redistricting. Republican lawmakers in Texas, Missouri and North Carolina already have approved new congressional maps at the urging of President Donald Trump.
