Letitia James: We Cannot Afford to Abandon the Voting Rights Act

New York Attorney General Letitia James says the Supreme Court's recent decision in Louisiana v. Callais is a 'cruel blow to our democracy' that erodes the Voting Rights Act. The decision dishonors the legacy of Civil Rights Movement heroes who fought for their right to vote. James joined the annual march across the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama, last month, where she reflected on the sacrifices of her ancestors and other Civil Rights activists. As Attorney General, James fights to preserve the fairness and integrity of New York's elections, providing voters with tools to participate in the state's elections. Her office works to stop voter suppression and holds bad actors accountable. James vows to continue fighting for fair representation and voting rights for all Americans.
