Trump’s DOJ Wants Personal Voter Data for ‘Improper Purposes,’ Michigan Official Says
- The Trump administration's Justice Department is suing 29 states, including Michigan, to obtain personal voter data to evaluate voter roll maintenance efforts and detect noncitizen registrants, citing the Civil Rights Act.
- Michigan and other states argue the DOJ aims to build an unauthorized national voter registration list, which is not allowed under federal law, opposing the DOJ's demands for voter data.
- Federal courts, including a ruling by U.S. District Judge Hala Jarbou, have rejected the DOJ's attempts to access unredacted voter lists containing sensitive information; the DOJ has appealed these decisions.
- Local election officials from multiple states have filed briefs opposing the DOJ's demands, stating there is no legitimate basis under the Civil Rights Act to obtain such records and warning against disclosing sensitive voter data.
