United States v. Caldwell — Amici Curiae Brief of the Brennan Center for Justice and Campaign Legal Center

On May 18, 2026, CLC and the Brennan Center filed an amicus brief in support of Defendant's Motion to Dismiss in United States v. Caldwell, the case in which the United States seeks to compel production of New Jersey's unredacted voter registration list. The brief argues that DOJ’s efforts to compel the list are part of a larger, unprecedented effort across the federal government to gather data about American voters, and that it undermines the authority over elections that the Constitution reserves for Congress and the States.
