Legal Battle Grows Over Virginia Redistricting Plan

Legal Battle Grows Over Virginia Redistricting Plan

Author: FOX News Radio April 20, 2026 Duration: 32:08
A high-stakes redistricting fight in Virginia is heading to voters, with a ballot measure that could temporarily shift control of congressional map-drawing back to state lawmakers. Virginia Republican Congressman Ben Cline joins the Rundown to discuss the legal and political stakes of changing district maps mid-decade and why he believes this proposal was pushed through improperly and could reshape the state’s map to heavily favor Democrats in upcoming midterm election. Plus, as a member of the House Intelligence Committee, Cline provides an update on election integrity oversight and the escalating U.S. strategy regarding Iran’s nuclear capabilities. GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy and others have gained much popularity for their weight loss effectiveness, but does the hype match the reality? FOX News Senior Medical Analyst Dr. Marc Siegel joins the Rundown to discuss the benefits and side effects of the drugs, plus how using AI for medical information can help or hurt. PLUS, commentary by Guy Benson, a FOX News political analyst and host of FOX News Radio's The Guy Benson Show.  PHOTO CREDIT: ASSOCIATED PRESS Learn more about your ad choices.
