Judge Blocks Trump's Proof-of-Citizenship Requirement
A federal judge ruled that President Donald Trump cannot require people to present documentary proof of U.S. citizenship when using the federal voter registration form.
Democratic and civil rights groups sued, arguing that the citizenship proof requirement would block eligible voters from registering.
Trump issued an executive order aiming to overhaul federal elections, including proof of citizenship and use of paper ballots.
- Requirement cannot be enforced, according to District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly.
- Executive order also sought to only accept mail-in ballots that arrive by Election Day.
