Judge Blocks Trump’s Mail Ballot Rules | US News

A Massachusetts judge has slapped a nationwide injunction on the Trump administration’s attempt to overhaul mail-in voting rules, blocking the Postal Service from rejecting ballots that don’t meet new criteria — at least until after the 2026 midterms. The court found the administration blatantly ignored its own court order, even though it claimed it was following the injunction by delaying implementation. This follows a separate Supreme Court pause on another injunction, but this new ruling is more forceful — stopping not just enforcement, but even the process of creating new rules. It all traces back to an executive order from March that demanded agencies compile voter lists and instructed the Postal Service to deliver ballots only to those on approved lists — a move now legally halted as courts step in to protect election integrity.
