Federal Judge Strikes Down Key Provisions of Trump's Election Integrity Executive Order

U.S. District Court Judge Denise Casper ruled that major sections of Trump's March 25, 2025, executive order on election integrity exceed presidential authority and violate the Constitution.
The ruling permanently blocks requirements for documentary proof of citizenship for voter registration and other provisions that threaten federal funding for non-compliance.
California Attorney General Rob Bonta hailed the ruling as a victory for states, emphasizing that the power to regulate elections lies with them, not the President.
