CUMBERLAND COUNTY, N.C. --

Members of the NAACP will come together today in Cumberland County to push for the passage of the Racial Justice Act.

The bill would allow a judge to rule out capital punishment in a murder case if the judge believes race was a basis for seeking the death penalty.

The senate is expected to take up the measure tomorrow, while the house has already approved the measure.
