16 GOP Attorneys General Challenge Garland’s Comments on Voting Laws

Matt McGregor, The Epoch Times

A group of Republican state attorneys general are pushing back against U.S. Attorney

General Merrick Garland’s comments made in March, where he discussed using the Department of Justice (DOJ) to interfere in state voting laws. Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita, in a letter supported by 15 other GOP prosecutors, including Ken Paxton in Texas and Liz Murrill in Louisiana, stated that Mr. Garland’s comments are “concerning.” Mr. Rokita called this a “weaponization of the DOJ” fueled by Mr. Garland’s personal views.
