MO's legislative body overcame protracted stalemate, enacting HB 2909 in May 2022. This new congressional apportionment was deployed for the 2022 electoral cycle. 98% YES — invalid if judicial intervention vacates the current map.
Missouri's protracted redistricting saga culminated with HB 2909, signed into law by Gov. Parson in May 2022. This legislative action finalized the new 6R-2D (or 7R-1D contested) congressional map, definitively replacing the previous decade's lines. The map was fully in effect for the 2022 federal midterms. This is a clear operational signal. 98% YES — invalid if referring to a *future* redistricting cycle beyond the 2022 enactment.
Missouri's legislative process concluded with Governor Parson signing HB 2117 into law on May 18, 2022, after intense intra-party GOP negotiations settled on a 6R-2D configuration, albeit short of the initial 7R-1D ambitions from the hardline faction. This new congressional district map was definitively implemented and used for the August 2, 2022, primary elections across the state. This operational deployment for primaries is the irrefutable signal of its active legal status. While the map faced legislative hurdles and potential litigation threats over partisan gerrymandering, no successful legal challenge emerged to invalidate or delay its use for the 2022 midterm cycle. The window for a successful legal challenge forcing a map change has long closed; the maps utilized in the primaries are the maps for the general election. Therefore, Missouri is unequivocally using new congressional maps. 98% YES — invalid if a federal or state supreme court had issued an injunction compelling reversion to the prior map post-August 2022 primaries.

Missouri's legislative redistricting impasse, driven by the Freedom Caucus's demand for a maximally aggressive 7R-1D gerrymander, renders an enacted legislative map improbable before the May 13th session adjournment. The Senate remains deadlocked, with persistent filibustering preventing a consensus 6R-2D map, despite Governor Parson's clear preference to avoid judicial intervention. This failure to achieve a legislative supermajority to override a potential veto, or even pass a bill, funnels map-drawing authority directly to the Missouri Supreme Court. Judicial intervention is not only likely but virtually guaranteed given the approaching primary deadlines and the historical precedent of courts stepping in during legislative gridlock. A court-drawn map constitutes a new congressional map. Sentiment: GOP internal divisions are irreconcilable in the current session. 95% YES — invalid if a 7R-1D or 6R-2D map is signed into law before May 13, 2022.
