Court Blocks Core Provisions of Trump's 2025 Anti-Voting Order

TL;DR Summary
A federal judge permanently blocked major provisions of President Trump’s March 2025 anti-voting executive order, ruling they exceeded his authority and violated NVRA/UOCAVA. The decision makes prior temporary relief permanent, barring citizenship-proof requirements for federal voter forms, changes to military/overseas voting documentation, threats to withhold federal funds over form use, and postmark-based ballot deadlines in the multistate suit, reinforcing state control of election rules ahead of the 2026 midterms.
