          Adams, Kobach & von Spakovsky represent a trio of conservatives who have long-established aims at reducing permissive voting rights laws.

          Back to the EPIC suit: Nothing the commission did today is fundamentally different than the McGahn LPR letter or the sanctuary city AG memo.

          There are differences here: This was the commission's choice, not an issue with the executive order itself. So, on the front end it's diff.

          But from the middle (implementation) to the back end, it's another vein in the same story.
