U.S. District Court Judge Indira Talwani ruled on June 25, 2026, that provisions of a March 2026 executive order directing federal agencies to compile a national list of eligible citizen voters violate separation of powers. The decision, issued in Boston, sided with 23 states and the District of Columbia and applies to the 2026 election cycle. A separate June 24 ruling blocked a related order on proof of citizenship for voter registration.
