Democratic-controlled states filed a new lawsuit Wednesday challenging President Trump's executive order limiting mail-in voting in the midterm elections, after the Supreme Court earlier in the week cleared the way for the policy to move forward.

A federal judge subsequently lifted a nationwide block on Trump's mail-in voting order, removing the last major legal obstacle to implementing the administration's policy, which would require election officials to provide voter information to USPS and use federally reviewed, uniquely barcoded ballot envelopes.
