Vice President JD Vance has met with Indiana GOP lawmakers several times this year in Indianapolis and in Washington D.C. to push for a mid-decade redraw. Mr. Trump met with Indiana House and Senate leaders in the Oval Office in August and has called state lawmakers about redistricting.

The Indiana Senate voted 31-19 to defeat a mid-census redistricting map Thursday, ending a months-long effort by the Trump administration to shift Indiana’s congressional districts.

A day after the Indiana Senate rejected President Donald Trump’s contentious mid-decade redistricting proposal, warnings of political and financial retaliation escalated — including public threats that the Hoosier State could lose federal funding as punishment for GOP senators’ refusal to approve the new congressional map.

The president was actively urging GOP lawmakers to support the bill. Republican State Senator Greg Goode got at least two calls from the president on redistricting, including one on Monday, he told the Indiana Capital Chronicle. Goode spoke with other White House officials Wednesday, but remained undecided ahead of the vote.
