Order Granting Partial Summary Judgment (Section 2a)
On October 31, 2025, the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia entered an opinion and order granting plaintiffs' Motion for Summary Judgment and issuing a permanent injunction blocking the U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) from taking any steps to implement Section 2(a) of President Trump's March 25, 2025, Executive Order, which ordered the EAC to adopt a burdensome documentary proof of citizenship requirement for the National Mail Voter Registration Form. The court found that this section of the order violated the fundamental principle of separation of powers contained in our Constitution, which gives the president no role in setting election regulations.
