The Supreme Court's decision to temporarily restore the congressional map in Louisiana increases the likelihood that the Democrats will gain a seat in the House of Representatives. The balance of power in the House is likely to be determined by a number of races in the upcoming election. It was in response to the lower-court decision that blocked the map drawn by Louisiana's Republican-controlled Legislature. The justices said that they would stay in effect until the Supreme Court made a decision. In a dissent, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wrote that she believed the court had acted too soon.
