Top Dems Sue Trump Over “Election Integrity” Order

Courthouse News reports:

Top Democratic officials sued the Trump administration Monday night, challenging President Donald Trump’s executive order that would impose citizenship requirements to register to vote and open voter rolls to the Department of Government Efficiency.

The Democratic National Committee, joined by the Democratic Governors Association, the Senate and House campaign committees, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries filed the suit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.

“In the United States of America, the president does not get to dictate the rules of our elections,” the Democrats wrote. “The executive order seeks to impose radical changes on how Americans register to vote, cast a ballot and participate in our democracy — all of which threaten to disenfranchise lawful voters and none of which is legal.”
