Yesterday, the U.S. Supreme Court left in place a preliminary injunction halting the mandatory implementation of a United States Postal Service (USPS) mail ballot rule for the November 2026 election. The rule, following a March 2026 Executive Order, had required states to enroll every voter who is eligible to vote by mail with USPS and tasks USPS with compiling the registered voters into state-specific lists. The rule also establishes new design requirements for state mail-in ballot envelopes, which USPS must approve. Under the rule, USPS will not deliver ballots to voters who do not appear on the USPS-generated lists and will not deliver ballots in envelopes that fail to comply with the rule’s new envelope design standards.

Governor Gretchen Whitmer has ordered U.S. and Michigan flags across the state to be lowered to half-staff on Friday, September 11, 2026 to honor and remember the heroes who lost their lives and those who sacrificed their lives for others, including first responders who showed bravery in responding to the attacks and aiding the victims. “On Patriot Day, we remember those we lost in the terrorist attacks on 9/11, honor those who serve, and recommit ourselves to standing up for what's right,” said Governor Whitmer. “I encourage all Michiganders to come together in a moment of silence at 8:46 a.m. local time and participate in local community service or charitable giving. This day reminds us to come together and cherish the fundamental American values we all love, freedom and opportunity. Let’s continue to stand united and work towards a brighter future.” Read more at https://lnkd.in/g-JkHmEi.
