Call to Action: Repair the Voting Rights Act

6/25/2020

 
Picture
Join the League in urging Senators to take action on the Voting Rights Advancement Act. The protections outlined in the Voting Rights Advancement Act will:
  • Re-establish preclearance coverage for states and localities with a history and pattern of discrimination in voting that relies on up-to-date information.
  • Provide preclearance nationwide for political subdivisions with substantial minority populations for a limited number of voting changes that historically have been found to be discriminatory, such as changes in methods of election and cuts in polling locations.
  • Create greater transparency and public notice for late-breaking voting changes just before an election, changes in polling resources, and demographic and electoral data. 
This post was adapted from a League of Women Voters notice. Get more information on how to participate here.
