Congressional Districts seems to not work

[npappin]

When running the command "pygris.congressional_districts(state='LA', cache=True)", the module fails out with the following error:

Using the default year of 2024 Cached file may be corrupted. Downloading again... HTTP download failed, trying FTP as fallback... Downloading tl_2024_us_cd119.zip from Census FTP...

DataSourceError: '/vsizip//root/.cache/pygris/tl_2024_us_cd119.zip' does not exist in the file system, and is not recognized as a supported dataset name.

It appears that the file at url = f"https://www2.census.gov/geo/tiger/TIGER2024/CD/tl_2024_us_cd119.zip" does not exist anymore. There is a set of files broken down at the state level. I am unsure if this is a result of the government shutdown or a change in the census's behavior. I would be happy to suggest a solution if welcomed.
