Top Democrats have filed a lawsuit to block President Donald Trump’s executive order mandating that voters must provide proof of citizenship to cast ballots in federal elections.
The lawsuit alleges that Trump’s order will “impose radical changes on how Americans register to vote.”
Trump signed the executive order last week seeking to overhaul the nation’s elections.
However, the order now faces two legal challenges, one of them by top Democrats.
The first lawsuit was filed on Monday afternoon by two leftist groups – the Campaign Legal Center and the State Democracy Defenders Fund.
Shortly after, the Democratic National Committee, the Democratic Governors Association, and Senate and House Democratic leaders filed a complaint of their own.
Both lawsuits filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia ask the court to block Trump’s order and declare it illegal.
