As Pete Williams just said on MSNBC, the cop is still on the beat, and you don't get a free pass now, despite the Supreme Court ruling. Watch out North Carolina, you're next (ohpleaseohpleaseohplease).

Via an email news alert:

U.S. Atty. Gen. Eric Holder announced today that the Justice Department is opening a new front in the battle for voting rights in response to a Supreme Court ruling that dealt a major setback to voter protections.

The attorney general said the Justice Department is asking a federal court to require the state of Texas to obtain advance approval before putting voting changes in place.

It is the department's first action to protect voting rights following the Supreme Court's decision on June 25, "but it will not be our last," Holder said.
