Here is more information on the Supreme Court’s lift on a block to Trump’s executive order that targets mail-in voting.

SCOTUS lifted one of two injunctions (or “blocks”) against Trump’s anti-voter executive order, providing a possible path for the Trump administration to attack voting freedoms ahead of the midterm election. However, there are both legal hurdles AND time constraints that could make it impossible to implement this before the November 3 General Election.

The Supreme Court did not rule that the President has any power over our elections, or that this executive order is legal. It simply decided that the lower court’s decision blocking these new restrictions came too early — a question about timing, not about power. This means that as of right now, there are no changes to how you can cast your ballot in the upcoming election. We will keep you posted as this progresses.

If you can say only one thing, say: As of right now, there are no changes to how you can cast your ballot this election.

Talking Points
• Trump’s executive order is an attempt to keep people from voting and an outright attack on our democracy. Mail-in voting is a secure and accessible option.
• Millions of voters across the country vote by mail, including President Trump himself, to make their voices heard.
• The U.S. Postal Service is a neutral mail carrier, NOT an overseer of ballot distribution.
