In a debate over budget appropriations, Representative Schweikert from Arizona spoke on the House of Representatives Floor about the ongoing Arizona and Texas battle with the Justice Department over voter ID laws. His appropriations amendment would cut off funding to the DOJ and limit their ability to litigate over the voter ID issue.
Based on his tweets, the amendment passed the House of Representatives.

Interesting idea. Another idea would be to require DOJ to pay for the litigation costs for states to go to Court. Section 5 review should not require years of delay and millions of dollars of litigation just to implement a law that has been upheld by the Supreme Court and proven not to discriminate in both Section 5 and non-Section 5 states.
