On March 31, 2026, President Trump signed Executive Order 14399, “Ensuring Citizenship Verification and Integrity in Federal Elections.” On June 2, 2026, as directed by the order, the United States Postal Service published a proposed rule, “Ballot Mail for Federal Elections,” in the Federal Register.
The proposal would establish new nationwide requirements governing the preparation and handling of ballot mail for federal elections.
The Postal Service provided a 30-day public comment period, which closed on July 2, 2026. The order directs the Postal Service to issue a final rule, if any, no later than 120 days from the date of the order, which would be on July 29, 2026.
