The Voting Rights Amendment

The Voting Rights Amendment is designed to strengthen protections against discrimination in voting, ensuring all eligible citizens can participate fairly. It updates existing laws to address barriers like strict voter ID laws, polling place intimidation, and discriminatory practices that may suppress voter turnout. The amendment promotes equal access by requiring fair procedures and holding jurisdictions accountable for unfair voting restrictions. Its goal is to safeguard the democratic process, ensuring every eligible voter’s voice is heard without facing unjust obstacles.
