Cornyn Responds to Justice Announcement on Texas Voting Laws

Statement

Date: July 25, 2013
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: Civil Liberties and Civil Rights Elections

U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) issued the following statement responding to reports that Attorney General Eric Holder will again target Texas' voting laws in court:

"By first going around the voters and now the Supreme Court, Attorney General Holder and President Obama's intentions are readily transparent. This decision has nothing to do with protecting voting rights and everything to do with advancing a partisan political agenda.

"Texans should not -- and will not -- stand for the continued bullying of our state by the Obama Administration."
