The Democratic National Committee (DNC) filed a lawsuit Monday against President Donald Trump’s recent executive order that overhauls the U.S. election system. Filed in federal court in Washington, D.C., the lawsuit argues that the March 25 order threatens to disenfranchise eligible voters and violates constitutional limits on presidential power.
The executive order mandates voters to prove U.S. citizenship, bars states from counting mail-in ballots received after Election Day, and threatens to cut federal funding to states that fail to comply. The DNC, represented by prominent election lawyer Marc Elias, contends that these measures undermine the democratic process and overstep presidential authority.
Joining the lawsuit are Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, who argue that the U.S. Constitution gives states and Congress—not the president—authority over federal election procedures. The plaintiffs warn that allowing such executive action sets a dangerous precedent, enabling sitting presidents to manipulate election rules for political gain.
The Trump administration has claimed the order aims to prevent foreign interference and non-citizen voting, despite a lack of evidence supporting widespread fraud. Trump continues to assert, without proof, that the 2020 election was stolen through illegal voting.
Voting rights groups, including the Campaign Legal Center and State Democracy Defenders Fund, have also filed a separate legal challenge, calling the executive order unconstitutional and harmful to voter access.
Critics say the order is part of a broader effort by Trump and his Republican allies to cast doubt on the integrity of U.S. elections. The lawsuit emphasizes the importance of checks and balances, warning against executive overreach that could erode democratic norms.
The White House has yet to respond to the legal challenges.
