A coalition of voting rights organizations, including the League of Women Voters of Massachusetts, has filed an emergency motion in a federal court to enforce an injunction against the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) regarding a rule that restricts mail-in voting. This follows the USPS's announcement of a final rule that would take effect immediately unless blocked by the U.S. Supreme Court. U.S. District Court Judge Indira Talwani previously ruled that the USPS must cease plans related to mail-in voting as outlined in an executive order by former President Donald Trump. The groups argue that the USPS's actions violate the court's injunction and could create confusion for voters ahead of the November elections. The Justice Department has indicated plans to oppose the motion, asserting that the rule will not take effect before November unless the Supreme Court intervenes.
