Original: Rep. Summer Lee and others see themselves fighting a civil rights battle an earlier generation thought it won
Representative Summer Lee says she and other progressives are confronting a civil rights struggle that many believed had been settled decades ago. She argues voting rights, racial equality and other gains from the 1960s era are under renewed threat, positioning current political fights in Congress as a continuation of that earlier generational battle.
Why now: Debates over voting rights and civil rights protections have returned to the center of national politics, prompting Lee to frame her work as a continuation of the 1960s struggle.
