## Resource

A federal appeals court has blocked a controversial executive order aimed at creating a national voter list and restricting mail-in ballots, ruling it oversteps presidential authority. Signed in March with the goal of stopping non-citizens from voting, the order faced swift opposition from 23 states and D.C., who argued election rules belong to state and federal legislatures. The court’s decision currently shields those jurisdictions from the order’s mandates ahead of the next election, but the Justice Department vows to explore all legal options — signaling this battle may not be over.
