In the landmark case, Shelby County V. Holder (https://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/cert/12-96), the US Supreme Court struck down major provisions of the 1965 Voting Rights Act(https://www.archives.gov/milestone-documents/voting-rights-act) relating to the procedure of “pre-clearance.”
Since the ruling, states like Texas, Georgia, and North Carolina, can now make changes to their voting laws, such as photo ID requirements (https://www.brennancenter.org/issues/ensure-every-american-can-vote/vote-suppression/voter-id) the pre-clearance rules are no longer needed and besides, states need new laws to protect against voter fraud. Opponents say that these laws are just a new form of voter suppression(https://www.britannica.com/topic/voter-suppression) tactics that hit the poor and racial minorities hardest.
Based on this, your paper must meet the following strict content, format and submission requirements:
