"This could be the year when a national voter ID law is finally enacted."

"You can definitely expect it [national voter ID]."

"We will implement measures to secure our Elections, including Voter ID."

Donald Trump "is going to quickly institute national voter ID."

"I just want voter ID to start."

Will a Federal Voter ID Bill Be Signed by Trump?

The U.S. Justice Department (DOJ) filed lawsuits Tuesday against Delaware, Maryland, New Mexico, Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington, accusing them of failing to produce statewide voter registration lists upon request. That brings the total number of states the DOJ has sued to at least 14.

The U.S. Justice Department (DOJ) filed lawsuits Tuesday against Delaware, Maryland, New Mexico, Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington, accusing them of failing to produce statewide voter registration lists upon request. That brings the total number of states the DOJ has sued to at least 14.

The complaints argue that the states failed to meet legal obligations under the National Voter Registration Act, the Help America Vote Act and the Civil Rights Act of 1960, which require states to maintain accurate voter rolls and make those records available for inspection.

In a statement announcing the lawsuits, Attorney General Pam Bondi stated that accurate voter rolls are the "cornerstone of fair and free elections" and Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon said that states that continue to defy federal voting laws interfere with the mission "of ensuring that Americans have accurate voter lists as they go to the polls."

The DOJ requested copies containing personally identifiable information, including voters' names, birth dates, addresses and driver's license numbers or partial Social Security numbers. Some states provided only publicly available redacted versions.

The New Mexico Secretary of State's office said that it already provided the DOJ with publicly available voter data, but is legally prevented from turning over private voter information. Washington Secretary of State Steve Hobbs cited state privacy laws.

The DOJ is taking decisive action to root out voter fraud by demanding access to state voter rolls that Democrats have corruptly maintained. States refusing transparency about their voter lists clearly have something to hide. This necessary push for election integrity will restore confidence in American elections.

Republican narrative

The Trump administration is weaponizing the DOJ to build an unconstitutional national voter database under the guise of election integrity. This unprecedented federal power grab is targeting Democrat-run states while fueling false fraud claims. Elections belong to states, not to Trump and Bondi's authoritarian playbook.
