"For decades, the Voting Rights Act has ensured fair and equal representation for all our nation's citizens.

"Today's egregious decision by Donald Trump's Supreme Court is the effective end of this monumental civil rights law. It's reckless and wrong, and across the country, minority voters could lose much of their voice in our democracy and their representation in Congress.

"Now more than ever, engaged citizens must work together to ensure no one is left behind in the wake of malicious actions from Washington. In New Jersey, we will always stand for the ideals of equal protection under the law and ensure every voter in every community is heard."
