The current administration is trying to suppress the vote and destroy our voting system which will in turn destroy our democracy. Their latest ploy- as they have lost every anti-voting lawsuit, is to go the the Supreme Court. I pray that SCOTUS will NOT vote in favor allowing the govt to "review" voter rolls but I am terrified that god forbid, trump gets his way. I did some research on what Congress can do if SCOTUS does not do the right thing. I am sure that you know more about this than myself, but here is what I read: What can Congress do when it disagrees with a Supreme Court ruling? When Congress disagrees with the Supreme Court about an interpretation of the Constitution, the only direct way to override that interpretation is for two-thirds of both houses of Congress to propose an amendment to the Constitution, which then must be ratified by three-quarters of the states. This is a difficult task that hasn’t been done in over 30 years. But sometimes Congress can achieve the same goals without amending the Constitution. This involves Congress enacting statutes that extend constitutional principles through one of its enumerated powers. The key powers given to Congress by the Constitution are the ability to regulate commerce and attach conditions to money given to states, as well as the ability to enforce the so-called Reconstruction Amendments that sought to enshrine greater equality in the wake of the Civil War. But if the Supreme Court’s ruling is just interpreting a federal statute as opposed to the Constitution itself, then Congress can simply enact a new or revised statute correcting the Supreme Court, as it has on several occasions. I am asking that the House and Senate take QUICK ACTION to do everything they can to save our voting system and to make the entire country- GOP, DEMS, Independents and Maga- know what is happening so that we can restore sanity, honesty, and voting rights for all at the midterms!
