Judge Blocks Trump Admin’s Voter Database

Published 1 day, 13 hours ago
Description

A federal judge just shut down the Trump administration’s illegal overhaul of a national database that mixed private citizen data to verify voting eligibility — a move that violated decades-old privacy laws and wrongly stripped thousands of eligible voters from rolls. The court called the administration’s justification “absurd,” finding they knowingly ignored safeguards and created chaos by combining sensitive records from Social Security and Homeland Security. Voting rights groups hailed the ruling as a major win for democracy, privacy, and fair elections — though the decision can still be appealed.
