US Postal Service issues rule to tighten requirements for mail-in voting despite courts looking to block

The USPS has introduced stricter rules for mail-in voting in response to President Trump's executive order, even though a federal court later invalidated the order. This move aims to tighten eligibility criteria for ballots, potentially impacting voter access ahead of the November midterm elections. The decision underscores the ongoing political battle over mail-in voting, which has significant implications for voter turnout and the integrity of the electoral process. It also highlights the USPS's role in navigating the complex interplay between executive orders and judicial rulings.
