Article 1 Section 4 Clause 1 of our Constitution allows Congress, and in particular the House of Representatives, to establish or alter regulations governing voting.
Specifically, it says the Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and
Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature
thereof; but the Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such
Regulations...
So, Democrats taking back the House of Representatives could reverse right-wing voter suppression tactics, by reclaiming 23 of the 36 seats currently held by members of the sardonically-named Freedom Caucus.
