Interstate CROSSCHECK has already been using voter info. that "Integrity" Commission seeks

That means that voter data is in the hands of a private corporation

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstate_Voter_Registration_Crosscheck_Program

The Interstate Crosscheck Program was an initiative started by the office of Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach in December 2005. The stated intention of the program was to create a database of data on registered voters to prevent voter fraud in the interests of election security. Kobach and the secretaries of three other states (Iowa, Missouri, and Nebraska) signed the original Memorandum of Understanding to participate in the program, which was put into practice in 2006. By 2013, 22 states were participating in the program, which remained under the administration of the office of the Kansas Secretary of State.[3] By May 2016, the program had grown to 30 participating states. The program uses its shared database in an attempt to prevent any individual voter from registering to vote in more than one state.[2]

Seems to me the "Integrity" Commission may have been a scheme to expand it to all 50 -- just a thought
