MCHENRY VOTES AGAINST VOTING RIGHTS ACT

I know I’ve been a little hard on North Carolina Congressman Patrick McHenry, but voting against the reauthorization of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 is a good first-step to salvation.

The 33 Republicans who voted against final passage of the Voting Rights Act were: Richard Baker (La.), J. Gresham Barrett (S.C.), Roscoe Bartlett (Md.), Joe Barton (Texas), Jo Bonner (Ala.), Dan Burton (Ind.), John Campbell (Calif.), Mike Conaway (Tex.), Nathan Deal (Ga.), John Doolittle (Calif.), John Duncan (Tenn.), Terry Everett (Ala.), Virginia Foxx (N.C.), Trent Franks (Ariz.), Scott Garrett (N.J.), Phil Gingrey (Ga.), Joel Hefley (Colo.), Jeb Hensarling (Texas), Wally Herger (Calif.), Sam Johnson (Texas), Steve King (Iowa), John Linder (Ga.), Patrick McHenry (N.C.), Gary Miller (Calif.), Charlie Norwood (Ga.), Ron Paul (Texas), Tom Price (Ga.), Dana Rohrabacher (Calif.), Ed Royce (Calif.), John Shadegg (Ariz.), Thomas Tancredo (Ga.), William Thornberry (Texas) and Lynn Westmoreland (Ga.).
