Upon the introduction of the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act into the Senate today, Ann Toback, CEO of the Workers Circle released this statement:

The Workers Circle applauds the introduction of the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act in the Senate and urges Congress to pass this bill without delay. I release this statement from Selma, Alabama, where we have gathered with civil rights, voting rights, and democracy organizations to remember civil rights leaders whose sacrifice gave birth to the landmark Voting Rights Act of 1965 (VRA). Today the generations-long gains in voting access and representation from that law are being rolled back.
