Governor Gavin Newsom on California securing massive victory for democracy

SACRAMENTO – Governor Gavin Newsom just issued the following statement in response to California, working with other states, securing a huge win for democracy against the Trump Administration’s attempts to restrict voting rights via the U.S. Postal Service.

California teamed up with other states and just beat the Trump Administration in defending democracy.

They tried to restrict voting rights via the USPS system, we sued, and we won an order blocking the USPS rule through the November elections! 

As ballots begin to be mailed out across the country, we must all continue to take concrete action to safeguard our republic.

This ruling, which comes in the aftermath of the Governor promising action, means a Preliminary Injunction is in place blocking the USPS’ rule as litigation takes place in the courts.

Importantly, this order moots the appeal pending with the U.S. Supreme Court.
