NYGOP Chair Ed Cox released the following statement:
“Hakeem Jeffries' hypocrisy and dishonesty know no limits. He says he is ‘promoting democracy’ while scheming to overturn the expressed will of New York voters.
“Voters adopted the nation’s strongest prohibition against partisan gerrymandering in 2014 and defeated Democrats' efforts to undermine that amendment in 2021.
“In 2022, Jeffries, Hochul and legislative Democrats arrogantly embraced a redistricting plan that clearly violated the State Constitution. Jeffries attacked the judges in three state courts that ruled against him.
“Last year, Jeffries and Democrats' attempt to racially gerrymander NY-11 was stopped dead in its tracks by the U.S. Supreme Court.
“Now Jeffries, desperate for the Speaker's gavel, is back with more dishonest efforts to change the State Constitution so he can rob New Yorkers of fair Congressional districts. The man has no shame."
