Interview with Rep. John Lewis on VRA Renewal

Matthew Cardinale of the Atlanta Progressive News reports here on his telephone interview with Representative John Lewis (D-GA) regarding the status of Voting Rights Act reauthorization. Rep. Lewis predicts that the VRA will be renewed, but says: "I do believe there is a deliberate, systematic attempt to deny certain groups in our population access to the ballot, to limit the participation of more people in the political process."
