Sessions halt against the Texas law reverses Obama’s six-year legal battle against voter ID laws.
From Daily Caller
State legislatures have begun pushing voter identification proposals since Attorney General Jeff Sessions ordered the Justice Department to withdraw from its legal fight against Texas’s voter ID law.
The move by Sessions is a reversal of the previous administration’s DOJ six-year legal battle against the Texas law.
Officials from the Justice Department contacted liberal activist groups on board with the lawsuit against Texas, including the Brennan Center for Justice, the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC), the NAACP, and the NAACP Legal Defense Fund about the change in policy at the DOJ, Salon reported.
Texas’s Republican majority legislature passed one of the strictest voter ID laws in the country in 2011 that mandated voters to show a driver’s license, passport or other government-issued photo ID prior to casting a ballot. The Obama administration Justice Department managed to block the law in 2013 after the department sued the state. A federal appeals court later ruled in 2016 the law discriminated against minorities without IDs and the legislation needed to be loosened.

Most countries require ID to vote. I honestly don’t know how anyone could ld get by without some ID just to get a drivers license, rent an apartment, or go into any federal building. It was just an excuse by progressives to impede honest reviews of the voter rolls which they blocked from being purged and cleaned up by election law. Now why exactly were they so determined to keep those rolls from being reviewed and hving people show they are registered voters and citizens? Let’s make an educated guess…..
cause they are dead and dont need id for being dead
