The Supreme Court ruled on Monday to allow the enforcement of an executive order from President Donald Trump that restricts mail-in voting ahead of the November midterm elections. This decision lifted an injunction that had previously blocked the order in 23 states that had challenged it after the administration's appeal in July. Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, and Ketanji Brown Jackson dissented from the ruling. Following the decision, the U.S. Postal Service and the Justice Department announced they would implement the revised mail-ballot restrictions immediately. The ruling may still allow for further court challenges that could delay the implementation of Trump's order.
