Arizona challenges Biden administration on illegal voting

 Fox News:

A move by the Department of Justice to block Arizona’s election law that seeks to stop non-citizens from voting has sparked a fiery response from the state’s attorney general -- who is questioning whether the agency is seeking to undermine sovereignty.

"In addition to free rooms and transportation for those illegally entering our country, the DOJ now wants to give them a chance to vote," Attorney General Mark Brnovich told Fox News Digital after the DOJ announced it was suing the state on Tuesday. "It's another round of Brnovich v. Biden. I will see you in court…again."

The DOJ’s Civil Rights Division wrote last month to Brnovich, alerting him to the plan to file a lawsuit against the Grand Canyon State over its recently enacted voting law, HB 2492.

That law requires those registered to vote to also provide documentary proof of citizenship, as part of a push to stop non-citizens from voting. The DOJ says that the 1993 National Voter Registration Act bars officials from denying individuals the ability to vote if they fill out the federal voter registration form correctly -- with no other requirements allowed.

"Those restrictions [in HB 2492] violate Section 6 of the NVRA, which requires Arizona to ‘accept and use’ a completed and valid Federal Form to register qualified applicants to vote in all elections for federal office," the letter by Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clarke says.

This looks like a direct challenge to the 1993 National Voter Registration Act.  The act made it easier for illegals to cheat.  Democrats think they benefit from such laws.
