National Voter Verification and Mail-in Ballot Restrictions
Where Things Stand
President Trump signed executive orders that require federal agencies to create a national list of verified U.S. citizens. These orders direct the Department of Homeland Security and the Social Security Administration to help states check voter rolls and limit mail-in voting. This policy changes election rules by adding new security requirements for the Postal Service and restricting who can receive a ballot by mail.
Key Statements
“President Trump issues an executive order restricting mail-in voting and directing DHS and SSA to compile lists of confirmed U.S. citizens for state voter verification.”
This confirms the specific federal agencies tasked with creating the new citizen verification lists.
“President Trump signs an executive order directing federal agencies to review voter roll data and the USPS to implement measures for mail-in ballot security.”
This highlights the involvement of the Postal Service in the new mail-in ballot restrictions.
