Courts issue conflicting rulings on Trump executive order restricting vote-by-mail
Federal courts issued conflicting rulings on President Donald Trump’s executive order restricting vote-by-mail, with one court allowing its implementation and another blocking it, prompting a potential Supreme Court resolution. The order requires the USPS and DHS to collect voter data, but agencies have not yet finalized rules. Voting rights groups argue the order could harm states by diverting resources ahead of the midterm elections.
