Federal judge rules #Trump can’t require #citizenship proof on the federal voting form

Trump’s request to add a documentary proof of citizenship requirement to the federal voter registration form cannot be enforced, a federal judge ruled Friday.

US District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly in Washington, DC, sided with #Democratic & #CivilRights groups that sued the Trump admin over his executive order to overhaul US #elections.

She ruled that the proof-of-citizenship directive is an #unconstitutional violation of the #SeparationOfPowers, dealing a blow to the #Trump admin & its allies who have claimed such a mandate is necessary to restore public confidence that only Americans are voting in #US #elections.
