House Republicans call for DOJ lawsuit against Georgia election law to be dismissed in amicus brief
Fox News
House Republicans on Monday filed an amicus brief in the Justice Department's lawsuit against Georgia's election law, urging the court to dismiss the case.
"The Constitution grants states – not the Executive Branch or federal courts – broad discretion to prevent potential voter fraud and voter intimidation, including implementing voter ID," Rep. Rick Allen, R-Ga., told Fox News. "The Biden Administration’s lawsuit against Georgia is just the latest example of an ongoing effort to federalize elections, and is the same attempt that is being waged legislatively with Congressional Democrats’ For the People Act." "We must reject these efforts and stand with the Constitution to defend states’ authority to conduct and administer elections," Allen added.More Related News
