The Justice Department on Tuesday filed lawsuits against six additional states for refusing to turn over their statewide voter registration lists in response to formal requests.

The complaints, filed in federal courts, allege the states violated provisions under the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) of 1993, the Help America Vote Act (HAVA) of 2002, and the Civil Rights Act (CRA) of 1960.
