Republicans are taking the initiative to renew Section 5, the provision protecting minorities from voter discrimination. Section 5 targeted the southern states because of a history of voter discrimination. Ben Porritt, press secretary for the Office of the House Majority Leader, said the decision to expand Section 5 to other states is left up to each individual state and renewal of the act should be discussed now instead of 2007. "Why wait until 2007 to renew Section 5?" Porritt said. Eric Holland, Department of Justice spokesman, said he believes the law has been effective since its enactment in 1965. "The Voting Rights Act was adopted initially in 1965, and extended in 1970, 1975 and 1982, and is generally considered the most successful piece of legislation ever adopted by the United States Congress," he said. The act codifies the 15th Amendment's guarantee that no person shall be denied the right to vote on account of race or color. Parts of the act pertain specifically to problem areas in the country, Holland said. "In addition, the act contains several special provisions that impose even more stringent requirements in certain jurisdictions throughout the country," he said. Tamara Robinson of the . Black Congressional Caucus Foundation from the office of Rep. John Lewis, D-Ga., said the act had a positive effect on the Civil Rights Movement. "It effectively abolished all of the legal barriers that African Americans and other minorities faced when trying to exercise their right to vote," she said. As a sign of the law's effectiveness, there have been lawsuits filed enabling the DOJ to crack down on voter discrimination. "Since it's enactment, over 1,000 lawsuits and injunctions have been filed by the Department of Justice regarding voter discrimination," she said. "The DOJ has been effective in blocking laws and changes that would dilute minority voting power." The law resulted in stricter voting requirements for the southern states, which has caused a variety of legal problems. For instance, Georgia has a law that requires voters to have a license or state I.D. Robinson said this law is not fair to those who do not have either, such as the elderly and the disabled. "The Georgia law is unfair because it is in essence a poll tax," she said. "Those currently without an J.D. would have to pay to vote. The dis­ abled are less likely to have a state J.D. or license." This law is also unfair to those who are less fortunate or live at or below the poverty line, she said because a state-issued I.D. or license typ­ ically costs between $20 and $30- too expensive for many poor or dis­ advantaged citizens. "Furthermore there is only one licenseii.D. facility in Fulton County, and it is outside of Atlanta's city, the largest city in the state," Robinson said. "Thus, it is expensive and geographically inconvenient for someone to obtain an J.D. to take to the polling place." The VRA is applicable anywhere voting discrimination is believed to have taken place, since it does not name particular states or areas, she said. "Places with demonstrated history of voter discrimination have to get permission from the Department of Justice if they want to change their state/county/local voting practices," Robinson said. Still, there are few potential problems with the renewal of Section 5, she said. "At this point in time there seems to be no problems," she said. "While a small minority of congressmen and senators have voiced con­ cerns, the majority of both parties from both houses are in support of the VRA renewal. There should be no major roadblocks in the passing of this legislation."
