COOK COUNTY RESOLUTION CALLING FOR A | Resolution | PROPOSED RESOLUTION
RESOLUTION CALLING FOR A HEARING REGARDING A NATIONAL COMMITMENT TO DEFEND, PROTECT, AND EXPAND THE RIGHT TO VOTE
WHEREAS, the erosion and obstruction of the protections guaranteed under the Voting Rights Act of 1965 signals a troubling return to practices rooted in suppression and exclusion, reinforcing the oppressive notion that the right to vote, especially for Black Americans and underserved communities, remains conditional rather than guaranteed; and
WHEREAS, the right to vote is the foundation of American democracy and has been secured through the sacrifice, courage, and leadership of those who refused to accept exclusion, particularly Black Americans who fought for full participation in this democracy; and
