D.C. Circuit Court Clears the Way for USPS to Enforce President Trump’s Requirement — States Must Turn Over Voter Rolls for Citizenship Checks or USPS Won’t Deliver Mail Ballots in the 2026 Midterms

A federal court has declined, for now, to block a U.S. Postal Service rule tied to President Donald Trump’s executive order on election administration, allowing the policy to remain in place while legal challenges continue.

The ruling clears the way for the USPS to move forward with rules that force states to submit their voter rolls for citizenship checks if they expect the Postal Service to deliver mail-in and absentee ballots for the November midterms.

As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, President Trump signed the landmark Executive Order “Ensuring Citizenship Verification and Integrity in Federal Elections” on March 31, 2026.

The order directs the Department of Homeland Security, Social Security Administration, and the USPS to work together to verify citizenship and prevent ineligible voters from receiving and casting mail ballots in federal elections.
