This wasn't just any bill... it was redistricting (US House, I think) seats. So that the Republicans could make new districts where they would gain a huge majority of those seats, as opposed to the way that it legally happened in the election (where Democrats won a majority of the seats).
Never mind that they are neutral districts agreed on in a court... the Republicans lost so of course its okay to change the law so you win!
