Trump Asks Chief Justice To Restore States' Voter Data Access
DHS filed an emergency stay application with Roberts on September 8 to pause a D.C. Circuit ruling that cut states off from the SAVE database.
- Docket No. 26A308 lists DHS v. League of Women Voters, filed September 8, 2026.
- D.C. Circuit ruling blocked states' access to the federal SAVE citizenship database.
- Application asks Chief Justice Roberts to stay that ruling before the election.
Why it matters: A database is neutral only until a court decides who may check it; that decision is the real vote.
