Voting rights battle returns to Supreme Court today

The fight to protect voting rights returns to the steps of the Supreme Court this morning (see Calendar). The Court will hear oral arguments today for Husted v. A. Philip Randolph Institute, a blockbuster case that could undermine the voting rights of millions. The case was brought by Ohio’s chapter of the A. Philip Randolph Institute (APRI) challenging a procedure the state uses to remove voters from the registration rolls based on their failure to vote. “Please join us and stand with the voters of Ohio and APRI to say no more voter purges,” says the AFL-CIO.
