States sue to block Trump’s election order, saying it violates the Constitution

Attorney General Josh Kaul joined 18 other Democratic attorneys general in suing the Trump Administration over an election order requiring proof of U.S. Citizenship for voters, claiming it violates the Constitution and the National Voting Rights Act.
A Waukesha County judge has blocked the Wisconsin Elections Commission from using the federal voter registration form specified by President Trump due to its lack of required state election questions.
The lawsuit argues that Trump’s order threatens state constitutional authority and could penalize states for non-compliance by threatening federal funding.
