Trump signs order that could restrict mail-in voting in Michigan
President Donald Trump has signed an executive order that could restrict mail-in voting in Michigan by requiring states to submit a list of eligible voters to the US Postal Service. The order aims to ensure citizenship verification and integrity in federal elections, but critics argue it could disenfranchise voters and undermine states' control over election administration.
President Donald Trump signed an executive order on March 31 that could change mail-in voting processes in Michigan. The order requires the federal government to produce a list of eligible voters in each state and send it to the US Postal Service. States must submit a list of eligible voters to receive mail-in ballots. The US Postal Service will develop voter-specific barcodes to track ballots and report back to states. The order gives the US Postal Service four months to devise a final rule, which could be in place before the November general election. The order has raised concerns about voter disenfranchisement and states' control over election administration.
