Court freezes major elements of Trump’s mail‑voting order

A federal judge in Boston halted key provisions of President Trump’s March 2026 executive order aimed at regulating mail voting, blocking USPS from implementing new rules in 23 Democratic‑led states and the District of Columbia and delaying DHS data‑sharing that would target state voter rolls. The ruling, citing that the Constitution does not grant the President expansive authority over elections and that he exceeded his powers, comes as multiple lawsuits challenge the order; in a separate DC case, another judge blocked the use of citizenship data to purge voter rolls.
