Walkinshaw Statement on Trump Administration’s Unconstitutional Attack on Mail-In Voting

WASHINGTON, D.C . — Congressman James R. Walkinshaw (VA-11) released the following statement after reports that the U.S. Postal Service is moving forward with a proposed rule to implement President Trump's executive order restricting mail-in voting. "Donald Trump's policies have failed and he knows he's on track to lose the midterm elections, so now he's trying to rig the rules. From his war of choice in Iran driving up costs to his broken promise to release the Epstein files, Trump can't defend his record. Now he's trying to make the United States Postal Service part of his scheme to block Americans from voting as he desperately clings to power. The Postal Service has no Constitutional or legal authority to interfere in election administration. No executive order changes that. And no president has the power to put federal officials between voters and their ballots." ###
