Civil rights bill enshrines federal voting protection
The bill gives the Justice Department power to seek federal court injunctions to enforce voting rights and outlines provisions on contempt and jury rights. It creates a bipartisan commission to study civil rights, adds a new civil rights division in the DOJ, and relaxes federal jury eligibility to allow broader African American participation. The measure, with penalties for secret proceedings and a likely presidential signature, aims to broaden federal enforcement of voting equality.
