                  PUTTING UP POINTS ON THE SCOREBOARD

  (Mr. DAVIS of North Carolina asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. DAVIS of North Carolina. Mr. Speaker, here is the scoreboard. It 
seems the game of mid-decade redistricting is still ongoing. I commend 
Indiana for recognizing that this isn't good for democracy, and it is 
not good for our country.
  It is wrong for Democrats and it is wrong for Republicans to draw 
maps mid-decade for the sole purpose of putting up points on the 
scoreboard, which is why I introduced the RESET Act and call on 
Congress to pass it. Congress must restore electoral stability to 
enhance trust.
  With elections every other year, imagine assemblies across the 
country waiting to see the results, only to redraw the congressional 
districts to run up the points. The people deserve better. The people 
deserve their voices to be heard. We must put our constituents first. 
Stop the political gamesmanship and bring this redistricting madness to 
an end.
