Alsobrooks Statement on Supreme Court Blow to Voting Rights Act
April 29, 2026
WASHINGTON, DC - Senator Angela Alsobrooks (D-Md.) issued the following statement after the Supreme Court significantly narrowed a key provision of the Voting Rights Act in a 6-3 ruling Wednesday.
"John Lewis was beaten with clubs wrapped in barbed wire on the Edmund Pettus Bridge fighting for voting rights.
"Today's SCOTUS decision takes the sacrifice and fight of all who marched before us and throws it away.
"We must keep marching - too many have fought too hard to give up."
