I am writing to demand immediate and public opposition to the President’s March 31, 2026 Executive Order titled “Ensuring Citizenship Verification and Integrity in Federal Elections.”
This order represents a direct and dangerous overreach of executive power into an area the Constitution clearly reserves to the states and to Congress. Election administration—particularly voter eligibility systems and mail-in ballot procedures—is not within the unilateral authority of the President.
This Executive Order attempts to:
* Create federal “citizenship lists” of voters using incomplete federal databases
* Empower federal agencies and the USPS to control whether ballots are issued or delivered
* Coerce states into compliance through threats of funding withdrawal and enforcement actions
These actions are not only unprecedented—they are constitutionally suspect. Legal experts across the political spectrum have already raised serious concerns that this order violates the separation of powers and intrudes on state authority over elections.
As your constituent, I expect you to:
1. Publicly denounce this Executive Order as an unconstitutional expansion of executive authority
2. Support or introduce legislation to block its implementation
3. Defend the constitutional role of Congress and the states in administering elections
4. Refuse any federal action that conditions funding on compliance with unlawful directives
Silence or inaction at this moment is not neutrality—it is complicity in the erosion of constitutional governance.
This is not a partisan issue. It is a constitutional one.
I urge you to act immediately.
