Biden. I will see you in court…again.",It’s another round of Brnovich v. Biden as his DOJ continues its attempts to undermine our election integrity laws. I will see you in court. Again.— Mark Brnovich (@GeneralBrnovich) July 5, 2022,“Arizona has passed a law that turns the clock back on progress by imposing unlawful and unnecessary requirements that would block eligible voters from the registration rolls for certain federal elections," said Kristen Clarke, assistant attorney general for the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division, in a statement.,She added that the DOJ would continue to “use every available tool to protect all Americans' right to vote and to ensure that their voices are heard.",The DOJ’s Civil Rights Division had already written to Brnovich in June to inform him the agency intended to file a lawsuit against the state over its recently enacted voting law.,The Justice Department argued this new legislation, signed in March by Arizona Republican Gov. Doug Ducey, violated the National Voter Registration Act, as it requires ‘documented proof’ of citizenship, such as a government-issued identification, like a driver's license, tribal ID or passport, to vote in federal elections.,The DOJ has pointed to the 1993 National Voter Registration Act to argue its case.,The Act “requires Arizona to ‘accept and use’ a completed and valid Federal Form to register qualified applicants to vote in all elections for federal office," Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clarke stated in the letter.,"Such applicants need not provide additional documentation to prove their citizenship to be registered to vote in federal elections," she added.,‘Election Safeguards’,Mark Brnovich, however, on July 1 vowed to "defend this law to the US Supreme Court if necessary and defeat the federal government’s efforts to interfere with our state’s election safeguards, as I did last year in Brnovich v DNC," according to Fox News Digital.,GREAT win for the rule of law today. Title 42 is upheld by a federal judge.Our office will continue to do everything in our power to push back against the lawlessness of the Biden Administration. pic.twitter.com/WKQBXp6fXB— Mark Brnovich (@GeneralBrnovich) May 20, 2022,Brnovich, who is also running for the US Senate, added that it was "curious" that the DOJ "would use its resources to challenge a common sense law in Arizona designed to guard against non-citizen voting, while the Biden administration is simultaneously opening our borders to encourage a flood of illegal immigration.",He concluded by questioning whether the federal government was seeking to “undermine” the state’s sovereignty and “destabilize” the election infrastructure.,“I hope this is not your intention," Brnovich was cited as saying.,GOP Cites 'Skewed' Voting as Arizona Woman Pleads Guilty to Illegal Early Ballot Collection Scheme5 June, 13:20 GMT,The legislation recently enacted by Arizona comes as part of a push to stop non-citizens from voting.,Back in 2013, the Supreme Court rejected a bid by Arizona to require its voters to provide proof of citizenship in order to participate in federal elections. The ruling did allow the requirement for state elections.,Arizona is one of a swathe of key battleground states where Republican state lawmakers have been arguing the need for changes to voting procedures. The drive came in the wake of the November 2020 elections, which ex-president Donald Trump has repeatedly slammed as marred by voting “irregularities” that were wielded to “rig” the vote in favour of his rival – Democrat Joe Biden. He blamed manipulations involving electronic Dominion voting machines, as well as mail-in ballots in key swing states. However, state courts threw out Trump’ss complaints, citing lack of evidence.,As Gov. Doug Ducey signed the bill into law on March 30, he stated:,"Election integrity means counting every lawful vote and prohibiting any attempt to illegally cast a vote. H.B. 2492 is a balanced approach that honors Arizona's history of making voting accessible without sacrificing security in our elections."。谢谢埃莉斯带我进了中央球场。祝贺芭芭拉和卡特琳娜,你们打得棒极了。希望下次我们还能来到这里比赛。”对于张帅来说,网球依然特别,依然值得去打个昏天黑地。来到33岁,张帅像是把自己翻了新的一页。在当今的女子网坛,张帅成了一个特殊的存在。本赛季,张帅虽然成绩不是最出色的那一个,却一定是人缘最好的一个。从红土赛季开始,张帅在每站比赛都和新的选手组成搭档征战双打。从法网到温网的混双比赛,用张帅的话说,男选手排着队来邀请她打混双。
来到33岁,张帅原本也将自己归类于再打不动球的老球员一类。在今年草地赛季伯明翰站,张帅在单打和双打两线作战,全部杀入决赛。在最后因体能耗尽无缘继续参赛后,张帅自嘲,自己作为33岁中国老阿姨,有些打不动了。这时她的对手,巴西选手玛雅说,“不,张帅,你是我见过最有活力的球员。” 从前的张帅,没有如今活得这般明白和通透。如今的她不再为了一个击球是好球还是坏球与裁判较劲儿,也不再为自己设立哪个球员当假想敌。如今的张帅只想不断地探索这个网球世界,利用有限的时间去取得更多的成就。今年温网,张帅再次获得了这个机会。

B | 在单打赛场,张帅连赢两轮,最终以32强结束单打赛事。

C | 在双打赛场,张帅和梅尔滕斯作为本届温网女双头号种子,向新的成就发起冲击。用张帅的话说,她此前还没能在温网的中心球场打一场双打半决赛。今年温网期间,张帅用实力实现自己的愿望。此前四轮,张帅组合不失一盘战胜对手打入决赛。

D | 2号种子克莱奇科娃/西尼亚科娃搭档时间很久配合默契,两人自2018年开始获得四次大满贯女双冠军,包括两次法网、一次温网和一次澳网。面对如此强劲的组合,张帅想要第三次问鼎大满贯女双冠军难度不小。最终张帅/梅尔滕斯两盘不敌状态更好的克莱奇科娃/西尼亚科娃获得亚军。

E | 对于张帅来说,职业网坛不仅没有变得如职场般熟悉又麻木,而且还翻开一页页新的篇章。本届温网张帅收获颇丰,打到单打32强和女双亚军的她获得25.5万英镑的奖金。在排名方面,张帅高居女双世界第二,有望本赛季成为世界第一。33岁的张帅仍在不断前行。文/本报记者 褚鹏
