美国司法部起诉纽森，指加州第50号提案新地图以种族划分国会选区
2025年11月13日，美国司法部宣布，已就加州第50号提案通过后采用的新国会选区重划方案，对加州州长Gavin Newsom与州务卿Shirley Weber提起法律行动。司法部指控，该方案强制推行以种族划分的国会选区，违反美国宪法第十四修正案的平等保护条款。加州选民已于11月4日投票通过第50号提案。
司法部说，第50号提案修改了加州宪法，允许州议会绘制新的国会选区地图；包括立法记录与公开言论在内的大量证据显示，州议会绘制新地图时以拉丁裔人口构成与种族考量为主导，违反了平等保护条款。司法部请求法院禁止在2026年及以后的选举中使用这张地图。
司法部长Pamela Bondi说：「加州的重划方案是公然的权力攫取，践踏公民权利、嘲弄民主程序。Newsom州长企图固化一党统治、让数百万加州人噤声，不会得逞。」民权司首席副助理司法部长Jesus A. Osete说，种族不能被用作推进政治利益的代理变量，而这正是加州议会通过第50号提案所做的事情。加州中区联邦代理检察官Bill Essayli说，加州可以绘制国会地图，但不得以种族为依据。
司法部介入既有诉讼Tangipa等人诉Newsom案的动议，正在加州中区联邦地区法院待决。助理司法部长Harmeet K. Dhillon已回避此案，司法部在此案中由Osete代表。

Justice Department Sues Newsom, Alleging California's Proposition 50 Map Draws Congressional Districts by Race
On November 13, 2025, the U.S. Department of Justice announced that it had filed legal action against California Governor Gavin Newsom and Secretary of State Shirley Weber over the state's newly adopted congressional redistricting plan enacted with the passage of Proposition 50. The department alleges that the plan mandates racially gerrymandered congressional districts in violation of the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. California voters had approved Proposition 50 on November 4.
The department said Proposition 50 amends the California Constitution, allowing the legislature to draw a new congressional district map, and that substantial evidence, including the legislative record and public statements, indicates the legislature created the new map with Latino demographics and racial considerations predominating, in violation of the Equal Protection Clause. The United States asked the court to bar use of the map in the 2026 election and future elections.
"California's redistricting scheme is a brazen power grab that tramples on civil rights and mocks the democratic process," said Attorney General Pamela Bondi. "Governor Newsom's attempt to entrench one-party rule and silence millions of Californians will not stand." Jesus A. Osete, Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights, said race cannot be used as a proxy to advance political interests, which is precisely what the California legislature did with Proposition 50. Bill Essayli, First Assistant United States Attorney for the Central District of California, said California is free to draw congressional maps, but they may not be drawn based on race.
The department's motion to intervene in Tangipa et al. v. Newsom is pending before the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon has been recused from the case, and Osete will represent the department in the matter.
