Federal Appeals Court Rejects Trump-Vance Administration Effort to Reinstate SAVE Voter Purge Database

A federal appeals court rejected the Trump administration's request to pause a lower court ruling that blocked the expansion of the Systematic Alien Verification Entitlements (SAVE) database for mass voter purges. The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the lower court's finding that the modified SAVE system illegally discloses sensitive personal information and poses a risk of citizens being wrongly required to prove citizenship to remain registered.
