Speaker Boehner Calls Section 5 a “Small” Provision of the Voting Rights Act

From Meet the Press interview:

Question: Do you believe that the Voting Rights Act is still needed?

Boehner: “Oh, I think the Voting Rights Act is passed with large majorities in the House and Senate. I think it’s something that has served our country well. But there is an argument over a very small section of the Voting Rights Act. And that’s what the court is going to consider.”
