  • Rep. Vargas: Support Voting Rights in 2014
    " The Voting Rights Act has been weakened by The Supreme Court and actions by Alec. These actions are putting minority voting rights in the most serious jeopardy since the early 1960's. Rep. Vargas should support a strong Voting Rights Bill to put a stop to this abuse. "

  • Voting Rights Amendment Act of 2014
    Before the original Voting Rights Act was passed, as I witnessed personally, many citizens were prevented from voting through the use of poll taxes, literacy tests and downright physical intimidation, among other ploys. Since the Supreme Court struck down part of this Act, several states are attempting once again to prevent citizens from voting - AND THIS MUST BE STOPPED! You in the Congress are the only ones who can do this. I urge you all, and especially Rep. Hunter, to co-sponsor and fight for this Act.

  • Please co-sponsor the Voting Rights Amendment Act of 2014
    I lived through the Civil Rights Era and do not want the fruit of our efforts then lost now because of outdated language. The proposed renewal casts the federal review process in geography-blind terms applying to all states and local districts equally, consistently with the logic of the Supreme Court decision. I hope you will co-sponsor this bill to conserve the concrete justice obtained in 1965.
