Nancy Pelosi(@SpeakerPelosi):61 years ago, the Voting Rights Act was signed into law—enacting a pillar of American civil rights. From the courts to the Congress, Republicans have repeatedly fought to gut this landmark legislation ever since. It's past time to pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act and ensure the right to vote is protected for generations to come.
