The Justice Department has sued six Democrat-led states for refusing to provide their voter registration rolls.
The department announced Tuesday that it filed all six lawsuits against Delaware, Maryland, New Mexico, Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington.
"Accurate voter rolls are the cornerstone of fair and free elections, and too many states have fallen into a pattern of noncompliance with basic voter roll maintenance," Attorney General Pamela Bondi said in a statement. "The Department of Justice will continue filing proactive election integrity litigation until states comply with basic election safeguards."
The DOJ argues in the lawsuits that the attorney general has the authority through the National Voter Registration Act, the Help America Vote Act, and the Civil Rights Act of 1960 to ensure that states properly maintain voter rolls and have effective voter registration programs.
