US EditionNorth Carolina Attorney General Jeff Jackson Sues to Stop Mail-in Voting Executive Order
The coalition says the order would force states to change voter-roll and mail-ballot systems and could disenfranchise eligible voters.
- On Friday, Vermont Attorney General Charity Clark joined a coalition of 23 states and one governor in suing President Donald Trump over his March 31 executive order restricting mail-in voting.
- The directive mandates creation of a national list of 'verified' eligible voters and restricts the Postal Service from distributing mail-in ballots to only those on the list.
- Plaintiffs argue the mandate violates the separation of powers and state sovereignty. New York Attorney General Letitia James called it an 'attempt to disenfranchise voters and sow distrust' in elections.
- The lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts, asks the court to declare the order unconstitutional and void and to enjoin all defendants from enforcing it.
- Critics warn rapid implementation could disenfranchise eligible citizens, including military personnel with 60 days before elections, creating chaos within state systems ahead of the 2026 midterm elections.
