The Supreme Court announced on Monday it has struck down an Arizona law that required voters to provide documentary proof of citizenship before registering to vote.
In Arizona v. Inter Tribal Council, seven justices agreed that the Arizona law oversteps the state's authority by essentially invalidating the federal voter registration form. The form, established by a 1993 law, lets people register to vote by sending in a uniform document accepted by all states. Voters must swear they are citizens on the form.

This is the evolution of policy. The supreme court only makes this ruling because of the
historic abuse of voting rights.
The major cases the court is looking at right now all boil down to a history of abuse and discrimination.
