Call to Action by NAACP HR9

[Anita Garcia]

NAACP has issued Call to Action for Monday, July 19.
Members are asked to call representative and urge him/her to support passage of H.R. 9 without any amendments.

"The hearings held in 2005 and 2006 in the House and Senate have found a new generation of tactics, including at-large elections, annexations, last minute poll place changes and redistricting which have had a discriminatory impact on voters, especially racial and ethnic minority American voters. Thus H.R. 9 was introduced to reauthorize the portions of the VRA that will expire next year and allow the federal government to address these new challenges." - NAACP
