- 特朗普行政令将收紧邮寄选票规则
- 美国法官扩大了针对特朗普指令的禁令范围
- 最高法院目前正在审议特朗普提出的在全国范围内执行该行政令的请求
8月12日（路透社）——美国总统唐纳德·特朗普政府周三再次要求美国最高法院介入，以全面执行其行政令，限制11月决定国会控制权的中期选举前的邮寄选票使用。
美国司法部提交申请，要求大法官暂停波士顿地区联邦地区法官因迪拉·塔尔瓦尼周二作出的裁决，该裁决阻止美国邮政署在全国范围内执行该行政令中针对邮寄投票的更严格规则。

作为共和党人的特朗普于今年3月签署了这项行政令，此前他多年来一直呼吁限制邮寄投票，并散播其2020年选举失利是广泛选民欺诈所致的虚假言论。
塔尔瓦尼周二的裁决是在多个民权团体提起的诉讼中作出的，该诉讼由美国公民自由联盟代理。此次裁决扩大了她在6月份发布的一项先前命令的范围，当时的命令禁止在23个主要由民主党执政的州以及哥伦比亚特区执行特朗普的行政令，这些地区也以违宪为由对该行动提出了质疑。
美国政府此前已要求最高法院暂停6月份的裁决。在周三提交的简短诉状中，司法部敦促最高法院撤销该裁决，并明确表示该裁决同样适用于周二法官作出的裁定。

美国政府辩称，这些诉讼为时过早，因为联邦机构尚未采取任何影响原告的具体行动，因此他们所称的任何伤害都是推测性的。
特朗普的行政令要求国土安全部编制并向各州提交一份符合每个州投票资格的美国公民名单，并要求司法部优先调查和起诉向被认定为“不符合”联邦选举投票资格的人员发放选票的州和地方选举官员。
该行政令还要求邮政服务部门仅将选票送达每个州批准的邮寄选票名单上的选民。美国邮政署近期已着手执行特朗普的指令。
塔尔瓦尼在周二支持民权团体的裁决中写道，联邦政府行政部门无权监管选举，这一职责由《美国宪法》赋予各个州。

- Summary
- Trump executive order would tighten rules around mail ballots
- US judge expanded injunction against Trump directive
- Supreme Court currently weighing Trump request to implement order nationwide
Aug 12 (Reuters) – President Donald Trump’s administration again asked the U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday to intervene to fully implement his executive order restricting the use of mail-in ballots ahead of the November midterm elections that will decide control of Congress.
The Justice Department filed a request asking the justices to put on hold a decision made on Tuesday by U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani in Boston that blocks the U.S. Postal Service from nationwide enforcement of the directive’s tighter rules for voting by mail.

Trump, a Republican, signed his executive order in March after years of calling for restrictions on voting by mail and pushing the false claim that his 2020 election defeat was the result of widespread voter fraud.
Talwani’s decision on Tuesday, in a case brought by several voting rights groups and represented by the American Civil Liberties Union, effectively expands on an earlier order she issued in June preventing the enforcement of Trump’s order in 23 mostly Democratic-governed states and Washington, D.C., which had also challenged the action as unconstitutional.
The administration has already asked the Supreme Court to pause the June decision. In its brief filing on Wednesday, the Justice Department urged the Supreme Court to lift that decision and make clear that the ruling applies to the judge’s action on Tuesday as well.

The administration contends that the lawsuits are premature as federal agencies have not yet taken any concrete actions that impact the plaintiffs, and so any harm they allege is speculative.
Trump’s executive order directed the Department of Homeland Security to compile and transmit to the states a list of U.S. citizens eligible to vote in each state, and the Justice Department to prioritize investigating and prosecuting state and local election officials who issue ballots to people deemed “not eligible” to vote in federal elections.
It also required the Postal Service to deliver ballots only to voters on each state’s approved mail-in ballot list. The Postal Service recently moved to implement Trump’s directive.
In siding with the voting rights groups on Tuesday, Talwani wrote that the executive branch of the federal government had no authority to regulate elections, a responsibility that the U.S. Constitution assigns to individual states.
