New Fix for the Voting Rights Act
Please support the Voting Rights Amendment Act of 2014 which would strengthen the Voting Rights Act.
Why is this important?
The Voting Rights Act is one of the most important pieces of civil rights legislation Congress has ever passed. Last year's Supreme Court decision weakened critical provisions of it. Right now, Congress can restore those protections by passing this important bill. Rep. Smith should support this effort by cosponsoring and fighting for a strong bill.
