Gregg Harper (R-Miss.) issued the following statement in response to the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to strike down Section IV of the “Voting Rights Act of 1965”: “The ‘Voting Rights Act’ had no provision for removing a jurisdiction from its preclearance requirements even after a state, such as Mississippi, has demonstrated years of compliance and dramatic improvements in its voting patterns. The Supreme Court today recognized this flaw." ### Gregg Harper is a third-term Republican lawmaker from Mississippi. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
