Civil Rights Groups Sue Federal Agencies Over Alleged Voter Intimidation of Naturalized Citizens

A coalition of civil rights organizations, including the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), has filed a federal lawsuit against U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). The lawsuit alleges that the agencies are systematically targeting, investigating, and intimidating naturalized U.S. citizens through an "Unlawful Voter Initiative," potentially violating voting rights. This action follows a federal judge's recent rebuff of the Trump administration's attempt to set aside California ballots, citing faulty data and the risk of disenfranchising naturalized citizens.
