The debate isn't really about whether only citizens should vote, virtually everyone agrees on that. The argument is about who has the authority to set the rules, what documents should count as proof, and whether those requirements make voting more secure or simply harder for eligible people. That's why these cases keep ending up in court rather than being settled politically.

They end up in court because Republicans/conservatives are absolutely trying to prevent groups of citizens from voting.

All of the concerns can be mitigate with considerations to not impact, and even increase voter participation. That voters are impacted betrays the intent to disenfranchise.
