Voter Suppression Lawsuit Update
Pre-trial hearing tomorrow!
Friday, February 21, 2014
In August, 2013, only minutes after Governor McCrory signed the Voter Suppression Bill HB 589 into law, the NC NAACP filed a lawsuit against the state of North Carolina for suppressing the vote of thousands of North Carolinians by reducing early voting days, eliminating same-day registration, eliminating pre-registration for 16 and 17 year olds, implementing a Voter ID law, and other regressive and extreme measures. We are in an ongoing legal battle over Voting Rights. This pre-trial hearing will focus on our continued fight to make Legislators and the Governor comply with the NC NAACP's requests to produce the documents that they have in their possession that are essential to determining what their intent was when this voter suppression bill was passed.
Join us as we continue this moral fight!
Forward Together, Not One Step Back!
