Do you feel this is voter suppression?

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott,  signed into law Senate Bill 1, which tightens  state election laws and puts constraints on local elections by  limiting counties’ ability to expand voting options. The bill could  expand access in predominant Republican counties by increasing early  voting hours. However, it restricts how and when voters cast ballots.  It cuts overnight early voting hours and drive-thru voting — both of  which proved popular among voters of color. There are other  restrictions listed in the bill.

Do you feel this is voter suppression? Analyze the degree of voter  suppression being a problem in the United States? Should there be  federal mandates? If so, what is the remedy to cure voter suppression?
