US Attorney General Todd Blanche confirmed that the executive branch will adhere to a judicial order preventing the US Postal Service from modifying ballot delivery requirements. The 7-2 decision leaves in place a lower-court injunction and stops the Trump administration from enforcing nationwide restrictions on mail-in voting before November. Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas were the only dissenters in the majority opinion.

President Donald Trump criticized the high court justices on Truth Social, calling the result a "big loss for Republicans" and a "nation destroying scam." Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wrote that the government's petition was "arbitrary and capricious" and failed to justify emergency relief. State and local officials previously warned that the proposed rule changes would have created a crisis during the 2026 congressional elections.
