Forty-seven years ago, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the historic Voting Rights Act (VRA) into law. But, the law is not just history; it remains critical to ensuring that every American can cast a ballot and have it counted. Even as we celebrate the VRA, unnecessary and costly new state voting laws remind us that voter suppression and intimidation tactics continue to plague our nation.

On Monday, June 11, Attorney General Eric Holder addressed our National Convention.

Throughout Convention, we invited attendees to participate in an online conversation by using #LWV2012.
