section 2 is the premise in which in what we're seeing right now that the doj is going to sue georgia. what is the point of the law where we're focusing on preserving the culture that many folks, many of the indigenous community in arizona, they have post office boxes. they're not in reservations, where they are located. look at the economic disparity between that community. the extremely disheartening, disappointing. i'm not quite surprised, what was interesting to me was in the actual oral argument you had the state saying this -- if we allow this to happen, this gives an advantage of the democrats. the bottom line is that i think this is the case that beyond the partisanship even though it was the dnc that brought this case, it's really around equal and adequate access to the ballot and we know some communities have a different set of barriers. i think the supreme court should be expanding access to voters so we have free and open access to voting. it is disconcerting. >> melissa, would you characterize this as a gutting of the voting rights act? >> i would, at least what was left

because georgia intended to pass laws that would block black voter turnout. today's ruling would provide guidance for lower courts. although the court is not making the big sweeping statement on a new test or anything like that. it's going to save that for the next cases. >> jan, today's also the end of the term, some progressives urge liberal justice stephen breyer to retire while the democrats control the senate. what are you hearing? >> nothing, anthony. i got to say there is no indication he is stepping down. i think it will come as a surprise to the court. he is in great health. he is active, got a lot of public speaking outside the court and plays such an important role on that court helping bring the justices together. that's going to be very important next year when they have a lot of controversial cases, including a challenge to roe versus wade. >> thank you, jan. >>> joining to the blistering heat wave in the pacific northwest where the death toll could reach the hundreds. more than 60 deaths confirmed in oregon. mst caused by the abnormallily high

passed across the country in the name of election security, just last week, they sued the state of georgia that in fact the new law passed by the georgia state did in fact unfairly and directly targeted minorities, the justice department i don't think based on conversations i had yesterday will look at this law and chang >> the supreme court upholding national impli m have a full wr on "world news tonight" and much more on abcnews.com and our streaming channel abc news live. i'm whit johnson in new york. we'll send you back to regular programming and for those out west that's "good morning "good morning america." have a good day. >>> zbla this has been a special report from abc news. th dupixen, you can change how their skin looks and feels. and that's the kind of change you notice. hide my skin? not me. don't use if you're allergic to dupixent. serious allergic reactions can occur, including anaphylaxis, which is severe. tell your doctor about new or worsening eye problems, such as eye pain or vision changes, parasitic infection. if you takn't an o them thout . when you help heal your ski

plaintiffs to say, look, the laws that you are -- that you passed in arizona or iowa or florida or georgia or all of the cases where the new laws are in effect, it is going to be harder to prove that there were discriminatory results. that is a big deal under all circumstances, but especially now when so many states are making it harder to vote. especially for black people. >> so to your point, jeffrey, i keep thinking back to the roberts decision when he wrote the majority opinion in shelby countiy and he said a large portion of the reasoning of the court was our country has changed. right. and remember justice is ginsburg warned that is like throwing away your umbrella in a rain storm because you're not getting wet. look at how big the rainstorm is now. can you -- go ahead. >> well the rain started literally the next day after the shelby county case was decided. the next day, after shelby county, north carolina and texas, which north carolina was then under total republican control, texas still is, started passing laws that made it harder to vote. limiting absentee balloting, limiting ea

because just last week the department of justice challenged the new law in georgia. the new vote restrictions in georgia. and i think they knew this was coming from the supreme court. so they did not use the part of the law about discriminatory effects. they used the part of the law that says laws cannot be passed with discriminatory intent. but again, it is important to point out, the supreme court has narrowed the definition of intent as well. made it harder to prove discriminatory intent. and if the broader message of the shelby county case eight years ago, this case today, is that the supreme court is going to make it hard to use the voting rights act. so the chances of success of the department of justice case that was filed against georgia last week, it's not directly effected by the result today, but atmospherically it sure is and i would say the attempt to use the courts to stop voting restrictions is gotten harder today and that is going to effect georgia as well. >> jeffrey, hold tight. we have other breaking news. i want to get your reaction to this hour a

earlier we spoke to failing one who's a professor of international affairs at georgia tech university. he says the chinese communist party has tightened its rule. me growing pressure against it does says he peer has gone through a few mutations over the past 100 years, from the agents of a soviet union to a passenger re rebellion and to a ruling partying authoritarian way. and then doing miles, i don't. it was kind of in a revolutionary zeal for world revolution. and after mom in retreated and reinvented itself to become authoritarian, a party, but sort of populist in some ways. but after junk mean iraq and haunting her era, more a problems having accumulating lots of pressure has been building. so i think this is hubie leadership has decided to bet on strengthening authority. hearing side of the b team to sort of a double down on the people democratic dictatorship and brought down on a strong leader like him out there. don't to safeguard the interest party leadership. and this kind of a typing up of control, a kind of double done with dictatorship, may or may not work, but it's the p

this results does specifically apply to arizona, but what could it mean to other states like georgia who are making changes to their voting laws. >> yeah, i was on the phone with advocates that bring these. they said it makes their work a lot harder. there is 22 different states that enacted a restrictive voting law this year and they're going to look and say we need to find a different way or find stronger cases. we see aj garland knowing this might have been approved. i think that is what they will have to do is try to prove there was a bias intended. but the court, advocates tell me the court will give states that want to prevent voter fraud cover. it is a very valid concern. we should note that it is really not a problem and we keep changing state laws to keep preventing it when really the person talking about it the most it former president donald trump who said the election was stolen from him, and the republican controlled states, many of them are casting doubt on the election, and then using that to legislate. >> i want to read a little bit from the dissent, today the court u

me, it just doesn't really harmonize with the image i have of the northern german landscape in north georgia home. so the rangers are trying to keep down the numbers of greater ria, for example by drilling holes into their eggs. but the birds just lay more of them . 3 years have no natural predators here. unlike in south america, where greater fall prey to jaguar's. but the rangers, in northern germany hope the local wild boar will start to take an interest in the re is x. there are this is theresa when on trying once or twice an egg. this is eyes will be it. it will be interested in finding more an open to see it on a method. and wild boar is approaching, the nest won't be scared off by a male. ria, nice bind open, but they'll manage to eat the eggs to gain wood defenses. and now people like district hunter, haycock funk, are joining the effort to keep the ria population and check they've shot more than 200 at the animals with official permission. of course, they are not trying to kill all of them. phone is convinced that the real will continue to multiply. he says the clever birds are leav

look at georgia? i think part of what happened in georgia, the reason there are two democratic senators from georgia, at least in part is because the state me a restrictions to voting, and the democratic party and democratic voters stood up and said we're going to vote. >> and the question is, and i go through this all the time with maps where the states did the restrictions and the big midterm races are. what do we know the impact on 2022 in a midterm election where certain states with big senate races or vulnerable house districts, the ones that decide? do they keep the house, the senate? both holding just by strings right now? >> well, look, i think democrats recognize that they need to do a serious education with campaign with their voters so people are aware not only of this as an issue that could galvanize voters but how they can cast their ballot given the restrictions. as phil pointed out, they don't have a lot of plays, cards to play here. it's not nothing feels like it's going to move in con

are a lot of eyes, of course, on the supreme court decision and brad raffensperger from the state of georgia and republicans have tried to make into a boogeyman oroville that they wanted to make it like there was fraud in georgia when there was no fraud. even republicans, of course, who stood up to the idea that the election was not stolen do want to see some voter restrictions put in place and this right here and today really underscores that point. >> and pete, of course, with the 6-3 decision, certainly cements a decision. we talked earlier that it was in some cases, 3-3-3, but the 6-3 is the dominating division on the court, and we've got the whole issue of steve breyer and when the longest serving justice -- not the longest serving justice and the 82-year-old steve breyer will make a decision under political pressure to step down because of what happened with ruth bader ginsburg and mitch mcconnell's vowed to not let democra replace a legal justice if the senate majority refers to the republicans in 2022. ? he's had no lack of people telling him what to do. the question is what is he go

would there be new election laws in georgia taking place today? >> i believe so because for many years when i ran actually in 2018 i said we need to move away from signature match and move tors an objective measure like driver's license number. what was adapted in sp-202 is similar to what they're using in minnesota for absentee ballot voters. that's good solid election reform. >> okay. is taking away the powers of your office good solid election reform or response to what happened in the 2020 election? >> well, removing me as the chairman of the state election board, the decision the general assembly made, not one i supported but at the end of the day i do believe making sure we have accountability to counties that continually fail because we have had one county at least since 1993, fulton county has had massive failures every single election. people not just in fulton county are waiting for those results but actually people across the entire state because it represents about 11% of our total voting population. >> well, i appreciate you putting i
