AFSCME Illinois Retiree Chapter 31

Election Fight Update: A divided three-judge panel for the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that Title III of the 1960 Civil Rights Act does not authorize the Justice Department to compel the state to provide its unredacted voter roll, which contains the dates of birth, partial social security numbers and driver’s license numbers of every registered voter in the state.

District court judges in Massachusetts and California also blocked parts of President Donald Trump’s mail-in voting executive order. The order – signed by President Trump in March – requires the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) to compile lists of eligible voters in each state and only send mail-in ballots to individuals on that list. The order is now blocked in 23 states and the District of Columbia, but the status of mail-in voting is still uncertain, as the Administration is expected to file motions appealing each of these decisions.
