Utah should join Colorado, Arizona, Nevada, Maine and other states in legally challenging President Trump's executive order restricting mail-in voting. This directive threatens the voting system Utah has successfully used for over a decade. We've been voting by mail since 2012, long before the pandemic made it a partisan issue. Lt. Gov. Deidre Henderson herself called this order nonsensical. Weber County Clerk Ricky Hatch raised serious concerns about the president's constitutional authority over elections and the impossibility of implementing massive changes in 90 to 120 days. These aren't Democratic talking points. These are warnings from Republican election officials who actually run our elections. The order forces the Postal Service to police what voters can receive and threatens to prosecute election officials who make mistakes, creating what Hatch called "hyper overprotection" that will disenfranchise eligible voters. Meanwhile, Henderson's office found exactly one noncitizen on Utah's voter rolls in January 2026. We don't have a fraud problem. We have a working system under attack. Stand with Utah's election officials and join the legal challenge. Our voters deserve better than federal overreach that solves a problem we don't have.
