A new memo signed by Secretary Markwayne Mullin limits data-sharing talks to only if the Postal Service finalizes rules and ensures privacy compliance — a major pivot from earlier claims of active monitoring. While the Justice Department still pushes forward with building state-level citizenship lists by June 30th, the timeline for voters to access and correct their own data remains murky. Critics, including voting rights groups and Democrats, warn this is an unconstitutional overreach that undermines election integrity and Postal Service independence. The administration’s shifting legal strategy — downplaying current actions while moving ahead with data collection — continues to fuel scrutiny and unanswered questions about legal authority and coordination.
