Issue Report :
Six years ago, the Supreme Court struck down key voting rights protections in the Shelby County v. Holder case. Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 established a process called “preclearance,” which worked to block voter discrimination before it occurred by requiring jurisdictions with a history of voter discrimination to obtain approval before changing voting rules. In its decision, the Supreme Court struck down Section 4 of the Voting Rights Act, which determined which states and localities were covered by Section 5, and ruled that Congress must pass a new formula to determine which states and localities would be subject to “preclearance.” Since that decision, nearly two dozen states have implemented voter suppression tactics.

Press Release :
The Judiciary Committee is considering the facts, which have been presented to them by various different committees – the Intelligence Committee, the Oversight Committee, and other committees as well… Republicans… are pounding on the table, not on the facts or the law because I don't think either one support their position.
