The Supreme Court agreed to hear a Republican-backed appeal to revive Arizona’s 2022 voting laws, including proof-of-citizenship for registration and ongoing voter-roll purges, after lower courts found the measures inconsistent with federal voting laws.

Oral arguments are expected in the fall, with a decision anticipated after the midterm elections.
