Monday, California Democrats and Republicans held dueling press conferences at the California State Capitol.
"These redrawn districts that we are putting before voters are a temporary response," Rivas said.
"Let's not replace it with this joke," Assembly Minority Leader James Gallagher said.
California's redrawn map, released Friday, outlined the plan to make five of the state's nine current GOP districts more favorable for Democrats.
Newsom and California Democrats have stated they would pull back their mid-decade redistricting plan if Texas also backed down.
"You can run but you cannot hide," Assemblymember Alexandra Macedo (R-Tulare) said. "And we are not backing down from this fight. You are disenfranchising Californians and we are tired of democracy dying here."
"There are more districts that aren't touched in this process that are changed," Mitchell said. "I think we were definitely looking at Kamala Harris numbers and other metrics, like registration and multiple past elections, in their totality."
The bill is scheduled to hit the California legislature's election committee on Tuesday, then the appropriations committee Wednesday. If it passes those committees, a full vote by both houses will need to happen by Thursday to meet California's secretary of state deadline to get the initiative on a Nov. 4 special election ballot.
