The Missouri Senate passed new borders on Friday that Republicans believe would benefit their party by splitting up the district of Representative Emanuel Cleaver, a Democrat.
Representative Emanuel Cleaver, a Democrat who was Kansas City’s first Black mayor, could find himself out of a job after 11 terms in Washington and nearly half a century in politics.
Republicans want to redraw congressional districts and increase their party’s chances of flipping a seat long held by a Democrat in the Kansas City area.
