Arizona AG Accuses DOJ Of Attempt to ‘Undermine Sovereignty’ By Suing Over State’s New Election Law_我的网站

一 |     A move by the Department of Justice to block Arizona’s election law HB 2492, seeking to stop non-citizens from voting, has triggered an angry reaction from Mark Brnovich, currently serving as the state’s 26th Attorney General.,"In addition to free rooms and transportation for those illegally entering our country, the DOJ now wants to give them a chance to vote," Brnovich was cited as fuming by Fox News Digita.,As the DOJ announced on Tuesday it had formally filed the lawsuit, calling the bill a "textbook violation of the National Voter Registration Act," Arizona’s AGquipped: "It's another round of Brnovich v. Biden. I will see you in court…again.",It’s another round of Brnovich v. Biden as his DOJ continues its attempts to undermine our election integrity laws. I will see you in court. Again.— Mark Brnovich (@GeneralBrnovich) July 5, 2022,“Arizona has passed a law that turns the clock back on progress by imposing unlawful and unnecessary requirements that would block eligible voters from the registration rolls for certain federal elections," said Kristen Clarke, assistant attorney general for the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division, in a statement.,She added that the DOJ would continue to “use every available tool to protect all Americans' right to vote and to ensure that their voices are heard.",The DOJ’s Civil Rights Division had already written to Brnovich in June to inform him the agency intended to file a lawsuit against the state over its recently enacted voting law.,The Justice Department argued this new legislation, signed in March by Arizona Republican Gov. Doug Ducey, violated the National Voter Registration Act, as it requires ‘documented proof’ of citizenship, such as a government-issued identification, like a driver's license, tribal ID or passport, to vote in federal elections.,The DOJ has pointed to the 1993 National Voter Registration Act to argue its case.,The Act “requires Arizona to ‘accept and use’ a completed and valid Federal Form to register qualified applicants to vote in all elections for federal office," Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clarke stated in the letter.,"Such applicants need not provide additional documentation to prove their citizenship to be registered to vote in federal elections," she added.,‘Election Safeguards’,Mark Brnovich, however, on July 1 vowed to "defend this law to the US Supreme Court if necessary and defeat the federal government’s efforts to interfere with our state’s election safeguards, as I did last year in Brnovich v DNC," according to Fox News Digital.,GREAT win for the rule of law today. Title 42 is upheld by a federal judge.Our office will continue to do everything in our power to push back against the lawlessness of the Biden Administration. pic.twitter.com/WKQBXp6fXB— Mark Brnovich (@GeneralBrnovich) May 20, 2022,Brnovich, who is also running for the US Senate, added that it was "curious" that the DOJ "would use its resources to challenge a common sense law in Arizona designed to guard against non-citizen voting, while the Biden administration is simultaneously opening our borders to encourage a flood of illegal immigration.",He concluded by questioning whether the federal government was seeking to “undermine” the state’s sovereignty and “destabilize” the election infrastructure.,“I hope this is not your intention," Brnovich was cited as saying.,GOP Cites 'Skewed' Voting as Arizona Woman Pleads Guilty to Illegal Early Ballot Collection Scheme5 June, 13:20 GMT,The legislation recently enacted by Arizona comes as part of a push to stop non-citizens from voting.,Back in 2013, the Supreme Court rejected a bid by Arizona to require its voters to provide proof of citizenship in order to participate in federal elections. The ruling did allow the requirement for state elections.,Arizona is one of a swathe of key battleground states where Republican state lawmakers have been arguing the need for changes to voting procedures. The drive came in the wake of the November 2020 elections, which ex-president Donald Trump has repeatedly slammed as marred by voting “irregularities” that were wielded to “rig” the vote in favour of his rival – Democrat Joe Biden. He blamed manipulations involving electronic Dominion voting machines, as well as mail-in ballots in key swing states. However, state courts threw out Trump’ss complaints, citing lack of evidence.,As Gov. Doug Ducey signed the bill into law on March 30, he stated:,"Election integrity means counting every lawful vote and prohibiting any attempt to illegally cast a vote. H.B. 2492 is a balanced approach that honors Arizona's history of making voting accessible without sacrificing security in our elections."。    The Academy Awards, popularly known as the Oscars, are widely regarded as the most prestigious and coveted honours in global cinema. For over nine decades, the Oscars have stood as a benchmark of cinematic excellence. However, in a surprising move, the Academy has now decided to leave the ABC network, where it has televised the show till 1960. From 2029, the Oscars will likely be streamed on YouTube               To understand a little bit of Oscars' history, the event did not get televised till 1953. It was originally with the NBC network but it went over to ABC in 1960. The relationship lasted for 10 years before the rights went back to NBC. After another 5-year stint, the Oscars returned to ABC and have remained with the network ever since. ABC also made history by broadcasting the Academy Awards in colour for the first time in 1966. However, this long-standing partnership is now nearing its end, as the iconic awards ceremony prepares to move with the times and embrace a new era of broadcasting.     As per the recent reports, the move to shift Oscars to YouTube will give fans a deeper and more personal look into the award ceremony. The Academy is also planning to release other related content, including red carpet pre-show event, BTS coverage and the Governors award footages. All of it will be available for streaming, making content more accessible to fans. The most important update is that the awards show might be available for free to stream, unless the Academy decides to keep it in a subscription-based system on YouTube.          In other news, Homebound has been shortlisted for the Academy Awards 2026 in the Best International Feature Film category, placing it among 15 selected from submissions by 86 countries. Some of the other films in the category include Palestine 36 from Palestine, The Voice of Hind Rajab from Tunisia, No Other Choice from South Korea and The Secret Agent from Brazil.     Also Read: Kiara Advani, Shahid Kapoor and Others React As Homebound Gets Shortlisted for Oscars 2026。
