While the DOJ can exert its influence, Dylan acknowledged the limitations of their authority regarding comprehensive electoral reforms. Much of the transformative work addressing voter rights must occur at the state level. She implored Congress to enact explicit laws that reinforce voter ID requirements, which reflect a prevalent issue in voter integrity discussions.
