(The Center Square) – A coalition of 24 state attorneys general has joined Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares in urging the U.S. Supreme Court to allow the commonwealth’s removal of “self-identified noncitizens” from voter rolls.

Miyares announced late Sunday that the commonwealth would file an emergency appeal with the court in a last-ditch effort to block a ruling in an order from the U.S. District Court to return over 1,500 noncitizens to the voter rolls that have been removed since Aug. 7.
