Interestingly, Kansas and Mississippi, which both signed this, also count mail-in ballots that arrive late.
The brief also argues that executive officials shouldn't be able to change voting rules. But Texas, the plaintiff in this case, the state they're supporting, did. The Texas governor used executive power to extend the early voting period.
