## Resource

Vermont joins 23 other states in rallying against a new USPS rule that could cripple mail-in voting—threatening democracy by restricting ballot delivery to a federal-approved list. Attorney General Charity Clark warns this move undermines Vermonters’ right to vote, echoing a recent federal court ruling that blocked similar presidential interference. With Independence Day fresh in mind, states are united in defending local control over elections, especially as this controversial rule still lingers despite violating a prior NAACP settlement. This isn’t Vermont’s first rodeo—over 50 lawsuits against past administrations show their commitment to state sovereignty in the voting process.
