Voting Rights Amendment Act of 2014

Victory! The creator of this petition declared the campaign a success. You can still sign the petition to show support.

Mr. Collins I'm looking for your sponsorship on this bill. Please join your colleagues Rep Sensenbrenner, Conyers, and Senator Leahy and get behind this very important amendment.

Why is this important?

The voting Rights Act is one or the most important pieces of civil rights legislation Congress has ever passed. Last years Supreme Court decision weakened critical provisions of it. It did tell Congress that it needed to update the Act in order to address how times have changed in the last fifty years, this bill makes an important step toward doing that.
