Federal Court Unanimously Rules Against Texas Voter ID Law

A three-judge panel today refused to allow Texas to implement its controversial voter photo ID law, saying the “stringent” measure would harm racial minorities & the poor.

The judicial panel said the law would have a “retrogressive,” or backward-moving, effect on minorities. This was a significant win for Obama’s Justice Department.
