Republicans Petition Supreme Court to Reinstate Arizona Voter Citizenship Law

The RNC seeks to enforce proof of citizenship for voter registration and mail-in ballots ahead of the 2024 presidential election.

The law requires proof of citizenship for those registering with a state-issued form and for mail-in voting.
A federal district court previously blocked the law, citing a 2018 settlement with immigration advocates.
The Supreme Court has asked for a response from opponents of the law by August 16.
Justice Elena Kagan will oversee the petition from the Republican National Committee and Arizona GOP lawmakers.
The issue highlights ongoing debates over voter integrity and access in a key swing state.
