美国邮政总局 关注
华盛顿，5月29日（路透社）——美国邮政总局将于周五提出新规则，要求各州提交已领取邮寄选票的选民名单，就在一天前，一名联邦法官拒绝立即叫停唐纳德·特朗普总统相关的行政命令。
美国邮政总局在《联邦公报》公告中公布的这项提案，要求各州向美国邮政总局提供联邦选举中邮寄选票所附带的姓名和条形码，但不适用于初选。公众有30天时间对该计划发表意见，之后特朗普政府才能将其敲定。

美国邮政总局提议，要求各州同时提供贴在寄出和寄回的选票信封上的唯一条形码，称此举“将有助于确认是否遵守联邦法律，并助力执法工作”。
周四，华盛顿特区美国地区法官卡尔·尼科尔斯拒绝叫停特朗普3月31日发布的关于邮寄选票的行政令，但未就该命令是否合法作出表态。
波士顿的一名法官已安排周二举行听证会，审理民主党州总检察长针对特朗普、美国邮政总局及其他方提起的另一项诉讼，该诉讼对这项投票行政令提出质疑。
该行政令还指示政府利用联邦数据协助各州选举官员核实选民资格，要求美国邮政总局仅将选票寄往各州批准的邮寄选票名单上的选民，并要求各州将选举相关记录保存五年。
一群民主党参议员表示，该行政令非法试图将美国邮政总局“转变为一个选举管理机构，拥有决定谁可以邮寄投票以及制定选票规格的权力”。
作为共和党人的特朗普多年来一直散布虚假言论，称其2020年选举失利是普遍存在的选民欺诈行为所致，并在11月的中期选举前呼吁收紧邮寄投票规则。
2025年3月，特朗普解雇了邮政局长路易斯·德乔伊。现任邮政局长大卫·施泰纳曾警告，美国邮政总局可能在明年年初耗尽资金。

WASHINGTON, May 29 (Reuters) – The U.S. Postal Service would require states to provide lists of voters who received mailed ballots as part of new rules proposed on Friday, one day after a federal judge declined to immediately block President Donald Trump’s related executive order.
The USPS proposal, published in a Federal Register notice, would require states to give the USPS the names and barcodes tied to their mail-in ballots for federal elections, but it would not apply to primary elections. The public has 30 days to comment on the plan before the Trump administration can finalize it.

The Postal Service is proposing to require states also provide unique barcodes applied to the outbound and return ballot mail envelopes, saying it “will help determine adherence to federal law and facilitate law enforcement efforts.”
On Thursday, Washington-based U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols declined to block Trump’s March 31 order on mail-in ballots but did not say whether it was lawful.
A judge in Boston has set a hearing for Tuesday on a separate lawsuit filed by Democratic state attorneys general against Trump, the USPS, and others challenging the voting order.
The order also directed the administration to use federal data to help state election officials verify who is eligible to vote, required the Postal Service to deliver ballots only to voters on each state’s approved mail-in ballot list, and required states to preserve election-related records for five years.
A group of Democratic senators said the order illegally seeks to transform USPS “into an election administration agency with the power to determine who can vote by mail and to establish ballot specifications.”
Trump, a Republican, has for years pushed the false claim that his 2020 election defeat was the result of widespread voter fraud and has called for tighter rules on voting by mail ahead of the November midterm elections.
In March 2025, Trump forced out Postmaster General Louis DeJoy. Current Postmaster General David Steiner has warned the USPS could run out of money by early next year.
