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

District Court

On March 10, 2026, Campaign Legal Center (CLC) and the Brennan Center, along with our co-counsel Wiggin and Dana, filed an amicus brief in support of the Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss in United States v. Thomas, the case in which the United States seeks to compel production of Connecticut’s unredacted voter registration list. The brief argues that the U.S. 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.
