Executive Order on Mail-in Voting Restrictions
Where Things Stand
President Trump signed an executive order that creates a national list of approved mail-in voters and orders the Attorney General to investigate how ballots are sent out. This policy limits who can vote by mail and gives the federal government new power over state election rules. Democratic officials have already filed lawsuits to block the order from taking effect before the next election.
