Abstract
This paper presents a brief and simple proposed Act of Congress which would block all state restrictions on voting rights, or other state laws affecting federal elections, enacted after January 6, 2021, unless such laws were enacted with bipartisan support. This would have the effect, in one fell swoop, of blocking and invalidating any and all partisan and abusive state legislation (whether Republican-sponsored or Democratic-sponsored) attacking voting rights or threatening election integrity. It would also effectively block any state map seeking to gerrymander districts for the U.S. House of Representatives on a partisan basis, with an express exemption allowing redistricting to proceed as usual in the ten states currently using independent nonpartisan or bipartisan districting commissions or procedures (Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Michigan, Montana, New Jersey, Virginia, and Washington), and a provision encouraging other states to adopt similar commissions.
