Under the redrawn U.S. Congressional map passed by the Texas legislature, the majority of San Marcos would be shifted to Congressional District 21, which currently covers much of the Texas Hill Country, extending south to the northeast portion of San Antonio.
CD 21, currently represented by Chip Roy (R-Austin), now includes Bandera, Blanco, Gillespie, Kendall, Kerr and Real counties, as well as most of Comal and Hays counties.
The cities of Dripping Springs, Fredericksburg and Kerrville, as well as the western edges of San Marcos and Kyle are now represented by Roy. The eastern portions of San Marcos and Kyle currently in Gregory Casar’s (DAustin) CD 35 would move to CD 21 in the proposed redistricting map included in Texas House Bill 4.
