Florida 's Fair Districts Amendment prohibits political districts from being drawn to favor a political party or incumbent.

In 2022 , Gov. Ron DeSantis vetoed a map that would have preserved former Black Democratic U.S. Rep. Al Lawson 's district.

The groups, which include Black Voters Matter and the League of Women Voters , asked the Florida Supreme Court on Thursday .

If they lose the case, the amendment itself could also be tossed out.
