Newsworthy News - President Trump signed a sweeping executive order to verify voter citizenship and restrict mail-in ballots — and a federal judge just let it move forward, dealing Democrats a stinging defeat.
Trump signed Executive Order 14399, directing the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Social Security Administration to build verified citizenship lists for every state, limiting mail ballots to approved voters only.
The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) is directed to deliver mail-in ballots only to voters on state-approved lists, with barcoded envelopes and centralized tracking required.
A federal judge rejected Democrats’ request to block the order, ruling they filed too early and no actual harm had yet occurred.
At least two dozen states and multiple voting rights groups have filed lawsuits, arguing the order oversteps presidential authority over elections.
