| Question presented | Republican National Committee v. Mi Familia Vota1. Does the National Voter Registration Act or a federal consent decree prohibit Arizona from requiring voter-registration applicants to produce "satisfactory evidence" of U.S. citizenship when registering with a state registration form? 2. Does the National Voter Registration Act prohibit Arizona from implementing a program within 90 days of a federal election to cancel the registrations of voters who are not U.S. citizens? | Jose A. Trevino v. Steven Hobbs, Secretary of State of Washington1. Whether an individual voter who was granted only permissive intervention below, has no role in implementing state elections, and has not established harm, traceability, or redressability to the lower court’s liability decision or remedial decision on the basis of vote dilution, lacks standing to appeal. 2. Whether a candidate who does not reside in or represent the district at issue, was granted only permissive intervention below, has no role in implementing state elections and does not challenge the counting of votes in his election, who was only helped and not harmed in any way by his new district, and who cannot establish traceability or redressability to the lower court’s liability or remedial decisions, has standing to appeal. 3. Where Intervenors forfeited their racial gerrymandering claim against the remedial map below, race was not considered at all in the drawing of the map, and the district court’s selection of the map was not driven by race such that race could not predominate, does the map trigger strict scrutiny under the Equal Protection Clause? |
| Summary | Republican National Committee v. Mi Familia VotaThis pending case concerns Arizona laws requiring people who use the state voter-registration form to provide documentary proof of U.S. citizenship and directing officials to cancel registrations when information confirms that a registrant is not a citizen. The Court will decide whether federal voter-registration law or a prior consent decree blocks those measures, including cancellations made within 90 days of a federal election. | Jose A. Trevino v. Steven Hobbs, Secretary of State of WashingtonThe case concerns a Voting Rights Act challenge to Washington’s legislative district 15 and José A. Trevino and other intervenors’ objections to a court-ordered replacement map. The Supreme Court agreed to hear the case, wiped out the Ninth Circuit’s judgment (vacated it), and sent the case back to the Ninth Circuit for another look (remanded it) in light of Louisiana v. Callais, without deciding the underlying questions. |
