Rep. Clarke: Support Voting RightsIn the original legislation there was a provision that required certain states to report their redistricting plans to the Department of Justice. to make certain that they display racial equality. A handful of folks brought suit arguing that sufficient time had passed so that the states not be required to submit their redistricting plans and the Supreme Court voided that petition agreeing with the petitioners that the States that previously had to submit their redistricting plans need not do so any longer. I am starting this petition because I feel that these states should still be submitting their redistricting plans to make certain that all citizens be treated fairly.912 of 1,000 SignaturesCreated by Alicia C.
