AUSTIN — The Mexican American Legislative Caucus and the Texas NAACP filed a lawsuit on Sept. 17 to overturn the state’s Voter ID law, joining the Justice Department in fighting the law.
The two groups filed their petition with a federal court in Corpus Christi, the same court where other civil rights groups and U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder are fighting the requirement that voters must show a government-issued photo ID card to cast a ballot.
