Public interest groups call for reform of civil rights commission

A federal commission that was responsible for the Civil and Voting rights acts of the 1960s is under fire. A coalition of public interest groups headed by the ACLU, says the US Commission on Civil Rights has become harmfully politicized and can no longer fulfill its duty as a guardian of human and civil rights. Today they told congress that major reforms in the commission are needed.  FSRN’s Matt Pearson reports.
