A federal judge has ruled the Trump administration cannot enforce an executive order requiring documented proof of U.S. citizenship on federal voter registration forms,<\/a> a decision the administration defends as a lawful effort to protect election integrity.<\/p>\n

U.S. District Judge<\/a> Colleen Kollar-Kotelly in Washington, D.C., on Friday found the requirement unconstitutional, writing that the president “lacks the authority to direct such changes.”<\/p>\n

“The first question presented in these consolidated cases is whether the president<\/a>, acting unilaterally, may direct changes to federal election procedures,” Kollar-Kotelly wrote in her opinion.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Because our Constitution<\/a> assigns responsibility for election regulation to the States and to Congress, this Court holds that the President lacks the authority to direct such changes.”<\/p>\n

However, a spokesperson for the White House told Fox News Digital Trump acted within his legal powers.<\/p>\n

“President Trump has exercised his lawful authority to ensure only American citizens are casting ballots in American elections,” White House deputy press secretary Abigail Jackson told Fox News Digital in an email. “This is so commonsense that only the Democrat Party would file a lawsuit against it.<\/p>\n

“We expect to be vindicated by a higher court.”<\/p>\n

The judge sided with the plaintiffs \u2014 including the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC), the Democratic National Committee and the League of Women Voters Education Fund \u2014 arguing the Constitution “assigns no direct role to the president in either domain.”<\/p>\n

The ruling says the U.S. Election Assistance Commission is permanently blocked from adding the requirement to the federal voter form, according to The Associated Press.<\/p>\n

The lawsuit will continue as the judge examines other parts of Trump\u2019s order, according to The Associated Press.<\/p>\n

In March, President Trump<\/a> signed an executive order mandating that anyone registering to vote provide government-issued proof of U.S. citizenship.<\/p>\n

The order also directed the attorney general to enter into information-sharing agreements with state election officials to identify cases of election fraud or other election law violations and conditioned federal election-related funds on states complying with federal election integrity measures.<\/p>\n

“There are other steps that we will be taking in the coming weeks,” Trump said just before signing the order. “We think we’ll be able to end up getting fair elections.”<\/p>\n

Kollar-Kotelly previously issued a preliminary injunction in April, and another federal judge blocked the same March 25 executive order in June after a separate challenge brought by Democratic state attorneys general, The Associated Press reported.<\/p>\n

The White House did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.<\/p>\n
