Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach today filed an amicus brief asking the Supreme Court to hear Republican National Committee v. Mi Familia Vota and confirm that states can make rules governing their own elections, including requiring voters to show proof of citizenship.
The brief argues that the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) does not prohibit states from ensuring that only citizens register to vote and that it doesn’t preempt a state’s right to regulate its presidential elections or to restrict how states conduct elections.
