NEW YORK (AP) — President Donald Trump’s request to add
a documentary proof of citizenship requirement to the federal
voter registration form cannot be enforced, a federal judge
ruled Friday.

U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly in Washington, D.C.,
sided with Democratic and civil rights groups that sued the
Trump administration over his executive order to overhaul U.S.
elections.

She ruled that the proof-of-citizenship directive is an
unconstitutional violation of the separation of powers.
