Bad news, John -- The conservative majority on the Supreme Court just struck another blow against the Voting Rights Act by upholding two voter suppression laws passed by Arizona Republicans:
 |
When the Court first began to defang the Voting Rights Act in its Shelby County decision in 2013, John Roberts wrote that “things have changed dramatically” in the South and racial discrimination no longer warranted approval of voting procedures by the federal government. He couldn’t have been more wrong -- Arizona's voting restrictions, as well as those in other states, disproportionately affect voters of color.
But while it’s clear we can’t count on the Supreme Court to defend voting rights, we’ve never relied on one court or one ruling to accomplish our goals. We have to do the work ourselves. That means mobilizing our grassroots army against restrictive state measures, continuing to press Congress to pass federal legislation protecting voting rights, and supporting plaintiffs in lawsuits that protect the redistricting process.
We need to make sure we have the resources we need to keep fighting and winning these battles. Will you rush a donation right now to help us reach our goal and keep up our fight for voting rights?
