Arizona counties have begun a process to work with the Department of National Security (DHS) with respect to the verification of voter citizenship and eliminate non -citizens of voter lists.
This occurs after America First Legal (AFL) filed a lawsuit against the 15 County of Arizona “on behalf of Ezaz.org”, and Yvonne Cahill, a registered voter and naturalized citizen, according to Fox News. In the lawsuit, AFL argued that “the counties had not been following a state law” that required people to prove their citizenship to vote in state and local elections.
According to the media, “while a ruling from the 2013 Supreme Court prohibits states from imposing registration requirements beyond the federal requirement that registration applicants must verify a box that affirms their US citizenship”, voters in the State must show evidence that they are citizens of the United States to vote in local and state elections:
While a 2013 Supreme Court ruling prohibits states from imposing voter registration requirements beyond the federal requirement that registration must verify a box that affirms its US citizenship, Arizona residents are still obliged to evidence.

According to the exit, “the decision was seen as a victory for AFL, since the 15 defendants agreed to” ask DHS to begin responding to requests “to verify the citizenship of voters only federal:
The decision was seen as a victory for Repeal, since the 15 County defendants agreed to “ask the DHS to begin responding to the requests of less than 8 USC §§ 1373 and 1644 to verify the citizenship of the federal voters of each county”, a key objective.
Breitbart News has previously reported that states such as North Carolina and Virginia have eliminated thousands of foreign citizens and non -citizens of their voter lists.
