On March 25, 2025, President Donald Trump reportedly signed a significant new executive order aimed at enhancing the integrity of U.S. elections, fulfilling a major promise from his campaign.
Trump emphasized that this order is a crucial step toward addressing election fraud, stating, “This country is so sick because of the election, the fake elections and the bad elections, and we’re going to straighten it out one way or the other.”
The executive order implements several measures to strengthen election security. One major component requires the Election Assistance Commission to mandate that voter registration forms include documentary proof of U.S. citizenship.
This requirement is a condition for states wishing to receive federal funding for elections, ensuring compliance with federal integrity measures.
Additionally, the order seeks to update the Voluntary Voting System Guidelines and enhance security standards for voting equipment.
A key requirement is the use of voter-verifiable paper ballots, moving away from systems that rely on barcodes or QR codes.
This executive order also empowers federal law enforcement to take stronger actions against voter fraud, with all agencies directed to report on their compliance efforts to undo a previous executive order by President Biden that had transformed federal agencies into entities focused on boosting Democratic voter turnout.
Trump’s administration has indicated that further actions will follow to bolster election integrity in the coming weeks.
The announcement reflects ongoing concerns about the security and fairness of the electoral process, addressing both political and public demand for reform.
As the administration moves forward, the emphasis on rigorous proof of citizenship and enhanced voting standards marks a significant shift in the approach to U.S. election security.
