FAIRVOTE CELEBRATES THE JOHN R. LEWIS VOTING RIGHTS ADVANCEMENT ACT
Last Tuesday, members of Congressreintroducedthe John R. Lewis Voting Rights
Advancement Act. The bill aims to restore and modernize the full protections of
the historic Voting Rights Act of 1965. FairVote is proud to endorse the
legislation.
FairVote Senior Fellow David Daley said this about the reintroduction:
“The Voting Rights Act is perhaps the most important and successful legislation
in our nation’s history. It has made the right to vote a reality for millions of
Americans, and helped us move ever closer to our democratic ideals. Yet this
bipartisan legislation has been chipped away.
“We are proud to support the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, as we
did when earlier versions were proposed in 2006 and 2013. These reforms are
fundamental to a future where every American’s voice counts.”
