Congressional Black Caucus calls for corporate leaders to speak out for voting rights

The Congressional Black Caucus urged corporations to condemn efforts to dilute Black voting strength as Southern states eliminate majority-Black congressional districts. A U.S. Supreme Court decision in Louisiana v. Callais weakened the Voting Rights Act, leading to new redistricting maps targeting Black-majority districts. Over 200 corporations previously supporting voting rights are being asked to oppose these efforts and report on political spending linked to discriminatory redistricting.
