Appeals court clears USPS to advance Trump-backed mail-voting rule ahead of 2026 elections

TL;DR Summary
A DC Circuit panel temporarily lifted a lower-court injunction, letting USPS press ahead with a Trump-backed mail-ballot rule that would require states to share voter data to determine ballot transmission; the ruling gives USPS time to finalize the rule while the NAACP-led challenge proceeds, but it does not decide the rule’s ultimate legality and notes the need to act before the 2026 election.
