美国第一巡回上诉法院周六维持了一项禁令，阻止特朗普关于创建联邦选民名单并限制邮件投票的行政令在包括23个州和哥伦比亚特区在内的美国近半数州份生效。[1]法院认定该行政令违宪，理由是设定选举规则的权力属于各州和国会，而非总统。[1]
特朗普于3月发布了这项行政令，要求创建"州公民名单"并对邮件投票施加限制。[1]联邦法官Indira Talwani同意暂停该行政令的执行至11月3日选举。[1]司法部表示正在评估所有选项，并对最终胜诉有信心。[1]
The First Circuit Court of Appeals upheld an injunction on Saturday that prevents President Trump's executive order on creating a federal voter list and restricting mail-in voting from taking effect across nearly half the United States, including 23 states and the District of Columbia [1]. The court determined that Trump's directive violates the Constitution, as the authority to establish election rules rests with the states and Congress rather than the president [1].
Trump issued the executive order in March, directing the creation of what he termed a "state citizenship list" and imposing restrictions on mail-in voting [1]. Judge Indira Talwani agreed to suspend the order's enforcement through November 3rd [1]. The Department of Justice stated it is evaluating all available legal options and expressed confidence in ultimately prevailing [1].
