Virginia Inactivity on Voting Rights Act Debate
RICHMOND AP Gov Godwin suggested Virginia waste little time seeking to escape the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and urged suspending two General Assembly committees studying the issue. He warned that Virginia cannot escape the federal act by court or congressional action and that no significant changes in state election laws could be enacted. Garvin echoed the desire to avoid unnecessary meetings unless tangible progress appears, noting the act applies to states with low registration or turnout among voting age Negroes.
