| USPS Proposes Halting Mail Ballot Delivery to States That Refuse Voter Roll Verification | |
| 2026-06-11 | |
[American Greatness] The US Postal Service (USPS) has proposed a new rule requiring states to share voter information related to mail-in and absentee voting. The proposal follows a March executive order from Trump aimed at tightening regulations governing mail-in voting in federal elections.
Several of those initiatives have faced legal challenges. Courts have blocked certain provisions, including proof-of-citizenship requirements, while appeals remain pending. Democratic-led states have also filed lawsuits challenging the administration’s mail-in voting policies. As litigation continues, the Postal Service has moved forward with a proposal directing states and the USPS to coordinate on identifying eligible mail-in and absentee voters. Under the proposed rule, states would submit lists of voters requesting mail-in ballots, along with personalized barcodes assigned to each ballot. The Postal Service would then return a finalized "Mail-In and Absentee Participation List" to each state’s chief election official. The list would contain the names of approved voters and the corresponding ballot barcodes associated with each voter. Under the proposal, only voters included on the final participation list would be eligible to receive mail-in or absentee ballots. The USPS said the new system would help improve transparency and provide election officials and law enforcement with additional tools to verify election procedures. | |
