Governor Greg Abbott convened a special legislative session beginning July 21, 2025, limited to 30 calendar days and scheduled to end on August 19, 2025. House Bill 4, introduced during this session, proposes a new congressional district map for Texas’s 38 U.S. House seats. Critics contend the proposal constitutes partisan gerrymandering. This market will resolve to "Yes" if the Texas House holds a floor vote on HB 4 before the special session ends on August 19, 2025, 23:59 ET. Otherwise, it will resolve to "No." Regardless of whether this session is extended, this market will resolve based on events occurring on or before August 19. The resolution source will be a consensus of credible reporting.
