More than 20 Democratic attorneys general filed a lawsuit Friday challenging Donald Trump’s Tuesday executive order to restrict who can vote by mail. The attorneys general, in their lawsuit, called the order an unconstitutional interference into state elections and a move to disenfranchise voters. The Trump administration has repeatedly targeted mail-in voting, arguing without evidence that it compromises election integrity and enables fraud. After the 2020 presidential election, Trump claimed without evidence election fraud contributed to his loss. In August 2025, Trump wrote on Truth Social that he wanted to eliminate mail-in voting to restore “honesty” in the 2026 midterms.
