Indiana Republican Gov. Mike Braun announced on Monday that he will call for a special legislative session to begin next week that will include considering redrawing Indiana's congressional map -- drawing the state more deeply into the mid-cycle redistricting battle occurring across the country. "I am calling a special legislative session to protect Hoosiers from efforts in other states that seek to diminish their voice in Washington and ensure their representation in Congress is fair," Braun wrote in a statement. The special session -- which is set to begin Monday, Nov. 3 -- will also deal with tax issues, according to Braun. The White House has openly pushed for Indiana, which currently has seven Republican and two Democratic members of the U.S. House, to redraw its congressional map. Vi
