Civil Rights Division Oversight
from C-SPAN Featured Programs by info@c-spanarchives.org (National Cable Satellite Corporation)
Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Thomas Perez testified on the Justice Department's approach to enforcing voting rights laws. Republicans contend that the Justice Department is partisan in the civil rights cases it chooses to pursue. The Civil Rights Division in the preceding year had filed suits against a number of states for new voting requirements including Florida for purging the voter rolls and most recently Pennsylvania for new voter identification requirements.
