i don't want to let the supreme court rulings of yesterday about doma and prop
eight overshadowed the disastrous supreme court ruling of the day before
yesterday regarding the voting rights act
this is such an important thing
we need right away
to tell are members of congress and senators
to come up with a new formula
for the voting rights act for what areas of the country should have to get
pre-clearance to make changes to
districting
as well as to
who changes in when when where voting is done in anything related to voting
including voter i_d_ laws because if we don't going into the twenty fourteen
election we are already gonna have states getting in motion to to change
voting laws
and particularly going towards the twenty six the election the repeal of
the republican party needs to mess with voting laws to overcome the changing
public opinion in terms of social issues as well as the changing by demographics
of this country
i think what we should do right now just to set an example is call our senator
elizabeth warren's office
and uh... and and encourage them to act on this week we just need to do it right
away so let's let's get on the phone
with elizabeth warns office an anchorage you do the same let's see what goes on
here
how it's busy
okay let me try different number then because they have i have all of her
offices here we will try to springfield office
springfield massachusetts only give alan shot
began
senator warren buffett but speaking out happier
this among this is david packed men were on live right now on the david packed in
show were nationally-syndicated show based in miss warns district uh... here
nasa choose its
durian were calling is we're going about the voting rights act and just really to
to set it set the tone for our audience that it is really important
that ms worn in the other ninety nine senators get to work no i don't know
what one might have to i'm sorry
using what projects
where would the david pacman show and the reason recalling is about the voting
rights act n really to to say we need his warren working on
a new formula for section four of the voting rights act
so right away but what we're saying is we need our audience
to do the same thing and and i hope that you're getting a lot of calls about
coming up with a new formula for section four of the voting rights act it's an
incredibly important issue and and i'm sure you've been getting a lot of calls
okay well thank you for one thing your opinion
okay thank you and we can be sure that if if other people call
via the call will get through the the the sentiment will get through to the
senator
war all alright
outlook although but nobody will be around it
all right thank you so much simone
their problem thank you
hiring so simone was a little bit confused i think about what that was
about
but i'm a little concerned that our message may not have gone through method
i don't i i i can say with certitude that we're going to get that as a vote
for coming up with a new formula lewis
but in any case if inkatha calls go through your me just to send uh...
this senator attacks
gap maybe justice in detective something about that
uh... any case
please call your members of congress p please call you your senators because
really this is one of those things were it's not as arbitrary thing it's
something very specific just come up with the new formula so we can make sure
voters are not disenfranchised in the twenty fourteen and twenty six the
elections
it's is just so simple lewis and we we absolutely need artist wanna say one
thing if you dial nine tie really sure that the staff there knows what the
voting rights at retro attacked is
at this point is based on that response but the let's hope that both they look
up what section four is and that they get the message after senator and you
would think that we would need to tell senator warren 'cause she's on top of
this year imagine what's gonna happen in georgia bright uh... that call it does
it have any massachusetts then the area of low flippant for real star crying
let's not talk about georgia
let's make some calls please
