Former Secretary of State and Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton accused the Supreme Court's conservative majority of demolishing what remained of the Voting Rights Act, warning that Republican-led states are already moving to redraw congressional maps in ways that could dilute Black voting power.
"In the 24 hours since the Supreme Court's majority ruled to demolish the Voting Rights Act's remaining protections, Louisiana and Tennessee have already signaled that they'll redraw their congressional maps with the clear effect of shutting Black voters out," Clinton wrote on Instagram. "The Court's decision overlooks reality for a self-serving right-wing fantasy and it will live in infamy."
