Department of Justice and DHS

President Biden? No—Trump signed an executive order on March 31, 2026 directing DHS (with SSA data) to compile federal “verified eligible voter” or state citizenship lists, bar USPS from mailing absentee ballots to anyone not on those lists, require trackable barcoded ballot envelopes, and authorize enforcement measures including DOJ investigations and potential funding penalties. Within hours the DNC, Democratic governors’ and campaign groups, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and a coalition of 23 states plus D.C. sued in federal court, arguing the order usurps state election authority, violates the Constitution and federal law, risks misflagging citizens and disenfranchising voters, and will likely be blocked as prior similar orders were.
