“Donald Trump is trying to grab power ahead of the '26 election and says he's going to ban vote by mail," Griswold said. "This is a direct attack on democracy. The Constitution very clearly states that states oversee elections, not Trump. We will challenge any unlawful executive order that he issues, and we're going to win. I will always fight to protect our elections, and I have stopped Trump from rolling back mail ballots before, and I'll do it this time, too."
