Virginia Democrats ask Supreme Court to reinstate congressional map struck down by state high court

May 11, 2026 / 4:38 PM EDT / CBS News

Washington — Virginia Democrats asked the Supreme Court on Monday to restore its new voter-approved congressional map that aimed to give Democrats an edge in the upcoming midterm elections, days after it was blocked by the state’s highest court.

In a bid for emergency relief, the state Democratic leaders urged the Supreme Court to pause the Virginia high court’s decision, arguing that it was “deeply mistaken” on issues of federal law. They called the Supreme Court of Virginia’s ruling Friday “judicial defiance of the commonwealth’s Constitution” and state statutes that established new congressional district lines to be used in the 2026 elections.

“By forcing the Commonwealth to conduct its congressional elections using districts different from those adopted by the General Assembly pursuant to a constitutional amendment the people just ratified, the Supreme Court of Virginia has deprived voters, candidates, and the Commonwealth of their right to the lawfully enacted congressional districts,” they wrote in their filing.

Virginia is one of several states to undergo a mid-decade redistricting after Texas reconfigured its House district lines at President Trump’s urging last year. California, North Carolina, Missouri and Florida have since followed suit. The Supreme Court allowed Texas and California to each use the new congressional voting boundaries for this year’s House elections. Texas’ new map is expected to net Republicans five seats, while California’s is set to net Democrats five seats.

In Virginia, voters approved a ballot measure last month that paved the way for the state legislature to adopt a new map that would give Democrats an advantage in 10 House districts and leave just one safe Republican seat. Virginia’s congressional delegation is currently composed of six Democratic lawmakers and five Republicans.

But on Friday, the Supreme Court of Virginia blocked the redistricting plan from taking effect, finding that the legislative process used by Virginia Democrats to place the constitutional amendment on the ballot violated the state constitution.

Lawyers for state Democratic leaders said in the wake of the decision that they planned to file an emergency appeal with the Supreme Court. But it’s unlikely the nation’s highest court will get involved, as it typically does not review state supreme courts’ interpretations of their constitutions.

The ruling by the Supreme Court of Virginia was a significant blow to Democrats’ efforts to counter the Republican push to redraw congressional maps and increase their chances of winning the House in November.

The redistricting efforts were scrambled further after the Supreme Court issued a highly anticipated ruling late last month that weakened the Voting Rights Act. On the heels of that decision, which invalidated Louisiana’s congressional map, Republicans in some Southern states are working to recraft House districts held by Democrats.

The Supreme Court’s conservative majority on Monday allowed Alabama to revert to a congressional map with one majority-Black district in a sudden ruling that drew a dissent from the court’s three liberal justices.

State officials in Alabama had rushed up to the court late Friday asking it to halt a lower court ruling that has blocked it from using a map it enacted in 2023. It did so based on the court’s blockbuster decision in late April dealing with Louisiana’s congressional map that severely weakened the scope of the landmark Voting Rights Act of 1965.

The Supreme Court’s order, which included no explanation, tosses out a lower court order that blocked the use of the 2023 map.

No vote count was released. Justice Sonia Sotomayor, joined by the court’s other two liberals, said the decision was “inappropriate” and “will cause only confusion as Alabamians begin to vote in the elections scheduled for next week.”

英国内阁出现分裂，一些部长包括内政部长马哈茂德呼吁首相斯塔默拟定辞职时间表，四名工党议员辞去部长级助理职务，加入了要求更换工党领导层的行列。

英国广播公司（BBC）报道，目前已有70名工党议员明确呼吁斯塔默让位，这一数字还在稳步上升。

《泰晤士报》报道，马哈茂德和其他内阁部长已向斯塔默表明，鉴于工党议员公开表达他们对上周地方选举工党遭遇最惨重失败的不满，他应考虑制定离任时间表。《卫报》称，外长库珀告诉斯塔默，他应该促成权力有序交接。

据BBC了解，内阁对斯塔默的去留问题意见分歧，仅少数人与马哈茂德持相同立场。

英国独立电视台（ITV）报道，斯塔默的副手拉米也敦促他制定离任时间表。

他在伦敦对党内忠实支持者发表讲话时，慷慨激昂地呼吁党内人士和选民继续支持他，避免一场“只会带来混乱”的领导权争夺，然而他的讲话似乎未能止住要他下台的声浪。

已宣布辞职的四名部长级助理说，他们认为斯塔默并非带领工党参加2029年下届全国大选的合适人选，并希望以他们的行动触发一场可能持续数周或数月的党魁竞争。

斯塔默在四名部长级助理辞职后迅速宣布了一系列新的人事任命，以填补多个空缺职位。

Supreme Court clears path for Alabama to redraw congressional map

May 11, 2026 / 6:19 PM EDT / CBS News

Washington — The Supreme Court on Monday cleared the way for Alabama to adopt a new House map ahead of the 2026 midterm elections.

In a divided decision from a trio of appeals involving Alabama’s House districts drawn in 2023, the high court set aside lower court rulings that had blocked the state from using the GOP-drawn map, which contained one majority-Black district. The Supreme Court sent the cases back to the lower court for further proceedings in light of its landmark ruling last month that weakened the Voting Rights Act.

The ruling from the high court appears to be 6 to 3, with Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson in dissent.

Sotomayor, joined by her two fellow liberal justices, wrote in a dissenting opinion that the move by the Supreme Court to toss out the district court’s decisions is “inappropriate and will cause only confusion as Alabamians begin to vote in the elections scheduled for next week.”

The state’s 2023 map contained just one majority-Black district out of seven House districts and was adopted by Alabama lawmakers after the Supreme Court, in an unexpected decision earlier that year, ruled that a redistricting plan enacted in 2021 likely violated Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act.

Alabama’s current map, used in the 2024 elections, was selected by a three-judge district court panel and includes two majority-Black districts. The state’s congressional delegation is currently composed of five Republicans and two Democrats.

Alabama had asked the Supreme Court to move quickly on the appeals following its landmark ruling last month that undermined Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act. On the heels of that 6-3 decision, which involved Louisiana’s congressional map, Republicans in some Southern states are scrambling to redraw their congressional maps and reconfigure districts held by Democrats.

In Alabama, where the primary is set for May 19, GOP Gov. Kay Ivey signed into law a measure that authorizes a special election for congressional districts whose current boundaries would change if the state were given the green light to revert back to its 2023 map.

The court fight over Alabama’s congressional map has spanned more than half the decade and has been before the Supreme Court numerous times across various stages of litigation.

After the state’s Republican-controlled Legislature adopted new House district lines in 2021, the high court agreed with a lower court that Alabama’s congressional map likely violated Section 2 by diluting the votes of Black residents. The lower court had said the state should have two House districts where Black voters have the opportunity to elect their preferred candidates.

Following that decision, state lawmakers enacted in July 2023 a new House map, which, like the 2021 plan, included a single majority-Black district. State officials said the congressional districts were drawn to minimize county splits, including in the so-called Black Belt, a rural region named for its fertile soil, and to adhere to traditional redistricting principles.

But that 2023 map drew another challenge and again, a three-judge district court panel blocked those congressional districts from being used in the 2024 elections. The Supreme Court declined to let Alabama use those House boundaries, and 2024 congressional elections were held under a remedial map drawn by the district court.

Alabama officials went on to appeal the district court rulings last year, but the Supreme Court had not yet acted on them while it was considering the Voting Rights Act dispute involving Louisiana’s map.

Separately, Alabama Republicans asked the Supreme Court to grant it emergency relief that would allow the state to return to its 2023 map for this election cycle.

“Plaintiffs would have Alabama hold elections under a map that was erroneously ordered at best and unconstitutional at worst. Nothing requires that result,” Alabama Solicitor General Barrett Bowdre wrote in its request. “Americans, no less in Alabama, deserve a republic free of racial sorting now, and state officials deserve an opportunity to give it to them.”

特朗普5月11日在白宫椭圆形办公室说，伊朗的最新回应是“垃圾”，他“甚至没有看完”。 （彭博社）

美国总统特朗普说，美国和伊朗的停火协议命悬一线，“严重依赖生命维持设备支撑”。

彭博社报道，特朗普星期一（5月11日）在白宫椭圆形办公室对记者表示，伊朗的最新回应是“垃圾”，他“甚至没有看完”。

一名知情人士透露，伊朗要求华盛顿解除海上封锁并放松制裁，而且坚持对霍尔木兹海峡航运保留一定控制权。

特朗普未说明美国是否会恢复对伊朗的军事打击，但他此前曾威胁称，如果伊朗领导层不接受美方条件，将采取行动。他在当天早些时候说，正在考虑恢复护航计划以协助船只通过霍尔木兹海峡。

在特朗普表示美伊停火命悬一线之际，油价上涨，截至纽约时间11日中午12时08分，布伦特原油升破每桶104美元（约132新元）。美国政府考虑动用更多手段以缓解能源价格上涨对消费者的冲击。特朗普11日表示支持暂停征收汽油税。

Cartel figure captured in Mexico as authorities recover drugs, guns and 7 tigers

May 11, 2026 / 1:57 PM EDT / CBS News

The leader of a group linked to a notorious cartel that operates near the U.S. border has been detained in Mexico, officials announced Monday. Authorities said they recovered weapons, drugs, cash and seven tigers during the arrest.

José Antonio Cortes Huerta, 39, the leader of a cell affiliated with the Northeast Cartel, was arrested in Nuevo León, stemming from an investigation following the seizure of a boat in Tamaulipas, security minister Omar Garcia Harfuch said in a social media post. A woman, identified as 41-year-old Rosario Flores Alemán, was also detained.

Authorities said they seized unidentified narcotics, cash, 10 guns, 11 vehicles, six motorcycles — and seven tigers.

Some Mexican drug cartels are known to house exotic cats as symbols of power and, occasionally, to dispose of their enemies. According to a 2023 U.S. indictment, some victims of a Sinaloa cartel faction were “fed dead or alive to tigers.”

Authorities recovered weapons, drugs and seven tigers during the arrest. Mexico Security Minister

Officials said the seized items are linked to Roberto Blanco Cantu who is known as “El Señor de los Buques” (“The Lord of the Ships”). Cantu, a majority shareholder of the company Mefra Fletes, is accused of smuggling fuel via boats and is allegedly affiliated with the Northeast Cartel.

The Northeast Cartel (Cártel del Noreste) — a remnant of the infamous Zetas crime syndicate — was designated as a foreign terrorist group by the Trump administration in 2025. Last month, the U.S. issued sanctions against three people and two casinos for their alleged links to the cartel.

According to the U.S. Treasury Department, the cartel is involved in the trafficking of illegal drugs along the border, including fentanyl, crystal meth, heroin and cocaine, and has waged a “campaign of terror on the border.”

“CDN is involved in violent criminal activity on both sides of the border, including the kidnapping and killing of individuals that threaten their criminal enterprise on the southern border,” the department says. “CDN uses its terror-fueled influence in the region to control drug trafficking and human smuggling routes, bribe politicians and journalists, and extort local businesses and shipments flowing to and from the United States at the busiest inland point of entry for trade in the United States.”

The latest arrest comes as Mexico continues its crackdown on cartels amid pressure from the Trump administration.

Last month, the Mexican military captured one of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel’s top leaders in the northwest of the country, two months after its leader “El Mencho” was killed.

Just days before that, Mexican soldiers captured three of the closest allies of drug lord Joaquin”El Chapo”Guzman’s brother in an operation backed by U.S. intelligence.

Americans from the hantavirus-stricken cruise ship were taken to a quarantine unit in Nebraska. Here’s why.

2026-05-11 1:38 PM EDT / CBS News

When Americans who were on the cruise ship hit by a hantavirus outbreak arrived back in the United States Monday, most of them were brought to the University of Nebraska Medical Center, which has multiple specialized facilities to monitor and treat people exposed to infectious diseases.

Fifteen people who were on the cruise are at the National Quarantine Unit on the university’s campus in Omaha, Nebraska, officials said Monday. The quarantine unit is the only federally funded facility of its kind and was first used in the early months of the deadly COVID-19 pandemic.

“There is no place in the country that they could be better cared for more safely and more effectively,” Dr. Jeffrey Gold, president of the University of Nebraska, said Monday.

Also at the medical center is the Nebraska Biocontainment Unit, which is used if people in the quarantine unit develop symptoms and need treatment. One of the passengers from the ship was taken there and is doing well, officials said.

Two others from the ship were taken to a biocontainment facility at Emory University in Atlanta.

Here’s what to know about the National Quarantine Unit and Nebraska Biocontainment Unit:

Quarantine unit “more like a hotel”

The quarantine unit is “designed for well individuals who need to be monitored,” Angela Hewlett, the medical director of the Nebraska Biocontainment Unit, said Monday.

There are 20 single-occupancy rooms in the facility. There is no intermingling and no visitors, aside from medical staff, said Michael Wadman, the medical director of National Quarantine Unit.

While in the unit, individuals are monitored for any symptoms and receive temperature checks.

Each room has “individual negative air pressure systems” and filters to prevent the spread of any possible virus, according to the university.

The rooms are also designed to keep people comfortable. Hewlett described the facility as “much more like a hotel than a patient care space,” noting they don’t have hospital equipment. The rooms have their own bathrooms, exercise equipment and Wi-Fi connectivity.

Patient care space in biocontainment unit

If someone in the quarantine unit develops symptoms, they would be assessed and moved to the Nebraska Biocontainment Unit.

“The biocontainment unit is a patient care space,” Hewlett said. “That’s where we provide hospital-based care to people who need it, and those patients could range from being relatively well and stable to critically ill, requiring multiple procedures and multiple interventions.”

Rooms in the biocontainment unit have the same air pressure systems and filters to prevent the spread of viruses.

“It’s a very different facility compared to your routine patient care room in a regular hospital,” Hewlett said.

The capacity of the unit varies depending on the virus and how much waste needs to be processed, Hewlett said.

“We typically can take 10 patients with an airborne disease,” such as bird flu and coronaviruses, she said. With the disease caused by hantavirus, which can cause people to “become ill fairly quickly,” the unit can typically take two to three patients, she said.

That capacity is why two people were taken to the Emory biocontainment unit, officials said. If more people develop symptoms than the number of beds available at the Nebraska Biocontainment Unit, they could be taken to other treatment centers in the U.S.

History of responding to infectious diseases

Both the UNMC quarantine unit and biocontainment unit have been used for infectious diseases in the past.

The quarantine unit was first activated in 2020 when Americans were evacuated from China, where the COVID-19 outbreak began.

The biocontainment unit treated some of the first Americans diagnosed with COVID-19. It was also activated in 2014 to treat Americans with Ebola.

“We are prepared for situations exactly like this,” Dr. Michael Ash, the CEO of Nebraska Medicine, said in a statement about the passengers arriving from the hantavirus-stricken cruise ship. “Our teams have trained for decades alongside federal and state partners to make sure we can safely provide care while protecting our staff and the broader community. We are proud to support this national effort.”

Why hantavirus is not like COVID, according to infectious disease experts

May 11, 2026 / 3:13 PM EDT / CBS News

By
Emily Mae Czachor News Editor

The deadly cruise ship outbreak of hantavirus, a rare, rodent-borne illness, may have evoked some memories of the early days of COVID-19 — but infectious disease specialists and public health officials say there are clear differences in this case that make the risk to the public extremely low.

“This is not another COVID,” World Health Organization Director-General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus told CBS News on Sunday.

Asked about his message to concerned Americans, he said, “Based on scientific assessment and based on evidence … the risk is low. So they shouldn’t— they shouldn’t worry.”

There have been at least 10 confirmed or suspected cases tied to the Dutch-flagged MV Hondius to date, including three fatalities. A group of 18 American passengers who returned to the U.S. early Monday are being monitoring at specialized medical facilities.

According to infectious disease experts, there are a few key characteristics that set this virus apart from the one that triggered a global pandemic in 2020. Here’s what to know.

“Wildfire” vs. “a wet log”

CBS News medical correspondent Dr. Céline Gounder, an infectious disease specialist, likened the properties of COVID-19, when it first surfaced, to conditions that create a favorable environment for wildfires to spread — whereas hantavirus is more like “a wet log in a stone fireplace.”

“If you’re a fire chief and you see dry forest, no rain in days, 40 mph winds, and a small fire — that’s going to turn into a wildfire,” Gounder said. “If you see a wet log in a stone fireplace, that’s going to smolder a little bit and then it’s going to die out. It’s sort of a similar thing. Infectious disease specialists, kind of like the fire chief, have seen these things before.”

While COVID was caused by “a brand new virus, where we were all learning in real time,” she noted that hantavirus has been studied for decades and scientists are much more familiar with how it spreads.

“This is not infectious in the way COVID was, or is. The incubation periods are different, and that’s actually helpful for us in containing it,” Gounder said.

Hantavirus “infects deep inside the lungs, not the upper respiratory tract, so it’s much harder to cough or breathe out enough virus into the air” for it to be easily transmissible.

Transmission requires prolonged contact

Hantavirus is rare and is typically spread by rodents in dry climates. The the Andes virus strain involved in the cruise ship outbreak is found in South America and is the only strain known to spread from person to person.

It has been found in areas where a Dutch couple had traveled before boarding the cruise ship in Ushuaia, Argentina, in April. The husband initially fell ill and died several weeks before his wife.

“This is not COVID. This is not influenza. It spreads, very, very differently,” said Maria Van Kerkhove, the World Health Organization’s director of epidemic and pandemic preparedness and prevention, at a briefing on May 7.

“I want to be unequivocal here,” she continued. “This is not SARS-CoV-2 [the virus that causes COVID]. This is not the start of a COVID pandemic. This is an outbreak that we see on a ship. This is a confined area.”

Unlike COVID, which can spread through the air, this virus requires “prolonged” physical contact in order to spread from one individual to another, Van Kerkhove said.

In a new webpage addressing questions about Andes virus, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said the “risk of a pandemic caused by this outbreak and the overall risk to the American public and travelers remains extremely low.” It says transmission is “usually limited to people who have close contact with a person with symptoms,” such as “prolonged direct physical contact,” “prolonged time spent in close or enclosed spaces” and “exposure to the infected person’s saliva, respiratory secretions, or other bodily fluids.”

Former FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb said on “Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan” that the hantavirus outbreak is “not going to spread like a pandemic virus, like COVID” because “it spreads far less efficiently.”

Admiral Brian Christine, assistant secretary for health at the Department of Health and Human Services, stressed the same point at a briefing Monday at the University of Nebraska Medical Center, where the National Quarantine Unit is located. Sixteen U.S. passengers are being monitored there, while two others were taken to a facility in Atlanta.

“Let me be crystal clear: The risk of hantavirus to the general public remains very, very low,” Christine said. “The Andes variant of this virus does not spread easily, and it requires prolonged close contact with someone who is already symptomatic. Even so, we have taken this situation very seriously from the very start.”

Lengthier incubation period

Multiple health officials have noted that the incubation period for Andes virus can be anywhere from around two to six weeks, meaning it may take that much time for someone to begin to show symptoms of the disease after they were exposed to it.

Gounder says the longer incubation period has given health officials an advantage of more time to develop their response to the outbreak. With COVID-19, the incubation period is much shorter, meaning the virus spreads more quickly.

“The good news here is, because of that long incubation period, that gave us more time,” said Gounder.

Passengers repatriated over the last day or so will likely reach the peak of the virus’ incubation cycle this week, according to Gottlieb, who said Sunday that people exposed during this outbreak are “nearing the end of the transmission window.”
