- Complaint filed: National Council of Jewish Women v. USCIS and DHS (D. Md.) — On November 7, 2025, the National Council of Jewish Women filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland challenging a U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services guidance document issued on August 29, 2025, that banned non-governmental entities from providing voter registration services. The plaintiff, which had regularly assisted newly eligible voters including naturalized citizens, alleged the ban violated the First Amendment (free expression and association), the Fifth Amendment (equal protection), and the Administrative Procedure Act (arbitrary and capricious action). The plaintiff seeks a declaration that the ban is unlawful and an injunction blocking its enforcement.
