Trump administration says biggest changes coming to infant formula in nearly 30 years

On Thursday, a federal judge ordered the Trump administration to disclose all states where it has pressured officials to adhere to its campaign aimed at preventing non-U.S. citizens from voting in the upcoming midterm election. The Democratic Party, led by Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, and others, filed a lawsuit on October 20 to prevent Trump from interfering with state election administration.

The plaintiffs demanded an order from Chief Judge James Boasberg to halt the administration's removal of legally registered voters from statewide voter registration lists or its efforts to prevent ballots from being issued, counted, or mailed to registered voters. The lawsuit cites the administration's recent actions in California, where the Justice Department sued to block the state from counting mail ballots from people identified as "likely" noncitizens until their immigration status is confirmed.

However, a federal judge ruled in California's favor, prompting an immediate appeal by the Justice Department. The administration argues that there is evidence of noncitizen illegal voting during the midterm election, though evidence from states and the Justice Department's investigations show that noncitizen voting is extremely rare.

The administration maintains that the Democratic plaintiffs' claims are too broad, vague, and would obstruct its constitutional duty to enforce federal laws. Judge Boasberg expressed doubt about the plaintiffs' legal standing and ordered the administration to provide a list of recipients of the Justice Department letters by Friday.
