Sen. Hagan Calls On Holder To Review North Carolina Voting Law
Contending that North Carolina's voting bill will "restrict the ability of minorities, seniors, students, the disabled, and low and middle incomes citizens" to participate in elections, Sen. Kay Hagan (D-NC) called on Attorney General Eric Holder on Tuesday to review the newly signed law.
“All American citizens deserve an equal opportunity to participate in the democratic process, and North Carolina has long been a leader in the expansion of voting rights and elimination of barriers to participation in the political process,” Hagan wrote in the letter to Holder (posted below).
She added, "“Protecting the fundamental right of our citizens to vote should be among the federal government’s highest priorities.”
