Maya Wiley on Supreme Court Gutting the Voting Rights Act, DOJ's Case Against SPLC & More

The U.S. Supreme Court has effectively gutted Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, the last remaining major provision of the landmark 1965 law that was a crowning achievement of the civil rights movement.

"This is central to whether or not we maintain a multiracial democracy in this country," says lawyer and civil rights activist Maya Wiley, head of the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights. She calls Wednesday's ruling "a free pass to discriminate."

Wiley also responds to the Justice Department's fraud case against the Southern Poverty Law Center, which centers on the group's history of paying individuals to infiltrate white supremacist groups in order to monitor their activities.
