Atty General Holder: Texas ID Law Would Hurt Minority Voters

The photo ID requirement Texas wants to implement would keep minorities from the polls.

In remarks to the NAACP in Houston, the attorney general said the Justice Department “will not allow political pretexts to disenfranchise American citizens of their most precious right.”

Under the law passed in Texas, Holder said that “many of those without IDs would have to travel great distances to get them – and some would struggle to pay for the documents they might need to obtain them.”
