Louisiana v. Callais · ¶26

A few years later, when Congress looked for language that would abrogate Mobile v. Bolden's interpretation of § 2, it selected terms that were nearly identical to language used in White. The accompanying Report of the Senate Judiciary Committee explained that the amendment's purpose was to repudiate Bolden and establish a new votedilution test based on White. See S. Rep. No. 97–417, pp. 2, 15–16, 27 (1982).
