2/28 Ari Berman: The Voting Rights Act In The Crosshairs

February 28, 2013

The Nation’s Ari Berman, reported from the Supreme Court on the fate of the Voting Rights Act, explained what Justice Roberts doesn’t like about the Voting Rights Act, the conservative “Wall Street approach” to voter suppression, why overwhelming political support for the Voting Rights Act is being used as a means to overturn it and is it possible that this could push electoral reform in Congress?

On The Better: epic Bob Woodward fail, what the Woodward emails reveal about the White House’s plans for entitlements, a gun owner shoots at a shop lifter in an attempt to “mark him” and your calls and IMs,

And keep the conversation going on the morning thread!
