The U.S. Supreme Court has declined former President Donald Trump’s request to strike down laws that protect mail-in voting rights. J.B. Pritzker drew attention to this outcome, noting that Trump has been critical of the practice despite having voted by mail himself. The court’s decision preserves existing voter protections and maintains the framework for mail-in ballots in future U.S. elections.
Pritzker has previously addressed Supreme Court decisions on voting rights and other social policies. On the anniversary of the landmark ruling, he affirmed Illinois’s commitment to LGBTQ+ rights after the court’s affirmation of U.S. marriage equality. Following the overturning of Roe v. Wade, Pritzker also stated that Illinois would maintain access to abortion rights.
