Governor Moore criticizes the current Congress as the most unproductive in history, noting its extended periods of being out of work and its low approval ratings. He asserts that Congress is failing to address critical issues like redistricting reform, leaving states to engage in a 'race to the bottom' without federal guidance. This inaction, he argues, exacerbates the problems of gerrymandering and undermines democratic processes.
