Federal judge bars Trump from implementing proof of citizenship requirement to vote
2 days ago - California Attorney General Rob Bonta, whose state was the lead plaintiff in the case, said the ruling reaffirmed the constitutional principle that it’s up to the states and Congress to set election rules. ... “While we are proud of this result, we are clear-eyed that President Trump’s attacks on voting rights and our elections show no signs of slowing down,” Bonta, a Democrat, said in a statement. “So let me be clear: we will keep fighting back every step of the way.” · In a statement, a White House spokeswoman said the Republican president wants to ensure that Americans are confident in the way elections are administered. The administration can appeal Wednesday’s ruling if it chooses. “The President’s executive order lawfully protects our elections, and we are confident that we will ultimately prevail in its implementation,” spokeswoman Abigail Jackson said.

Key Takeaways from President Trump’s Election Integrity EO - Institute for Responsive Government
February 12, 2026 - This is not likely to be an effective national takeover of elections – but is sloppy, illegal, and will likely make election administration much more difficult. Like the other EOs we’re seeing, this will be a test of judges’ ability to stop illegal activity by the administration. Here’s a closer look at what Trump’s election integrity EO does:

Judge refuses to block Trump order to limit mail voting. There's no immediate effect on the midterms
1 month ago - A federal judge has declined to halt President Donald Trump’s executive order creating a federal voter list and limiting mail voting, clearing the way for potential sweeping changes in how American elections are run shortly before this year’s midterm elections. U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols, a Trump appointee in Washington, late Wednesday rejected the request by Democrats and civil rights groups that had argued Trump’s order would likely be found unconstitutional because the states and Congress, not the president, have the power to set election rules. Nichols agreed with the Republican Trump administration’s contention that it was too early to block the order because it has yet to be implemented. Nichols’ ruling leaves the door open for further challenges when the Trump administration moves to implement the president’s directive. A separate lawsuit seeking to block the executive order is underway in Boston.
