Trump order limiting voting by mail will stand for now, federal judge rules

A federal judge ruled that President Donald Trump's executive order restricting voting by mail will remain in effect for now. The order directs the Postal Service to propose a rule blocking states from sending ballots except to voters on state-provided lists, and the judge indicated he may reconsider if the directive is enforced. The decision affects pending lawsuits from Democratic groups and the NAACP ahead of the November midterm elections.
