The Department of Justice has filed lawsuits against four more states as part of the Trump administration's attempt to access sensitive voter data. The DOJ is also suing one Georgia county, seeking records from the 2020 election.
The department has now filed suit against 18 states — mostly Democratic-led, and all states that President Trump lost in the 2020 election — as part of its far-reaching litigation.
For months, the Justice Department has been demanding certain states turn over complete, unredacted copies of their voter registration lists, including any driver's license numbers and parts of voters' Social Security numbers.
In court filings, the DOJ says it wants this personal information to check if states are following federal law on keeping accurate voter rolls.
But most states have refused, citing privacy restrictions.
The latest states to be sued are Colorado, Hawaii, Massachusetts and Nevada, the Justice Department announced Friday.
