District Court Confirms Presidents Don’t Set Election Law
MỘT district court judge ruled President Donald Trump cannot set election law by executive order, a victory for voting rights and the people.
In March, President Trump signed an executive order that attempts to put the White House in charge of elections by instituting unreasonable limits on when ballots can be counted and how to verify eligible voters. Several groups sued to block the executive order, and a judge ruled against the president’s action.
Tuyên bố của Chủ tịch & Tổng giám đốc điều hành Nguyên nhân chung Virginia Kase Solomon
“Today is a victory for the people in the ongoing fight to protect voting rights. We said in March that presidents don’t set election law, and now a district judge has reaffirmed that fact. While today is a victory for the people, we know it is not the last battle in the fight for the ballot. Common Cause and our members will continue to protect the vote whether attacks come from a president, Congress, or in the states. Voting is a right for the many and we will fight for as long as we need to ensure it.”
