Trump’s Mail Voting Order Faces Supreme Court | Washington DC News

The Trump administration is pushing the Supreme Court to fast-track an executive order that would force states to use federal citizenship lists to approve mail-in ballots—sparking a legal firestorm as 23 states and D.C. resist, arguing it violates state election authority. With midterms looming, the DOJ seeks to override lower court blocks, claiming the order is just guidance, while agencies like USCIS and SSA are being asked to share data—and the Postal Service to deliver ballots only to those on the list. Critics warn of federal overreach, especially as mail voting already accounts for 30% of ballots in recent elections, and the Court previously sided with states on ballot timing. The move, framed as preventing non-citizen voting, is escalating tensions ahead of November’s vote.
