The Democratic Party has sued the Trump administration for issuing an executive order that interferes with elections. The plaintiffs argue that President Trump seeks to expand authority over federal elections, including by requiring proof of citizenship and by targeting states that extend ballot receipt deadlines. Plaintiffs argue that the EO's provisions violate the U.S. Constitution, the Administrative Procedure Act, the National Voter Registration Act, and other federal laws.
On April 3, 2025, the case was consolidated with two other lawsuits challenging Trump’s executive order on election integrity. All future filings and updates can be found in League of United Latin American Citizens v. Executive Office of the President (25-cv-00946).
