NAACP and allied groups file suit against Trump administration over polling site agents

The NAACP, labor unions, and other advocacy organizations sued the Trump administration seeking to stop the potential deployment of federal agents at voting locations during the November midterm elections. The lawsuit argues such deployment would constitute unlawful voter intimidation under the Voting Rights Act.
“The result is predictable: voters across the country—particularly Black, Latino, and Asian voters, naturalized citizens, and members of mixed-status families—are afraid to vote, help others vote, and participate in civic life.”
