Postal Service moving forward with Trump’s attack on mail voting

  • The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) is drawing up plans to radically crack down on mail voting. In a proposed rule, the agency said it would only send ballots to voters who are on lists created and controlled by the federal government.
  • It’s an alarming step toward implementing part of President Donald Trump’s sweeping executive order that attacks mail voting ahead of the 2026 midterm election. It also represents a massive expansion of federal control over voting, without congressional authorization.
