美国联邦地区法院法官所罗门·奥利弗二世(Solomon Oliver Jr.)周二在克利夫兰作出裁决,暂时禁止俄亥俄州在机动车管理局进行选民登记时执行要求出示公民身份证明的新规 1。法官认定,这项今年首次生效的规定与《国家选民登记法》相冲突,因为其要求超出了“最低限度必要信息”的范畴 1。该禁令在10月5日中期选举选民登记截止日期前生效,从而在选举前暂停了该项要求 1。
俄亥俄州务卿弗兰克·拉罗斯(Frank LaRose)表示将立即对此裁决提起上诉 1。要求提供公民身份证明的做法并非俄亥俄州独有,南达科他州、犹他州和怀俄明州今年也实施了类似要求 1。此外,马里兰大学2025年的一项研究估计,全美有2130万符合投票资格的美国人没有或难以获取证明公民身份的文件 1。
U.S. District Judge Solomon Oliver Jr. in Cleveland issued a ruling on Tuesday temporarily blocking Ohio from enforcing a new requirement that voters registering at the Bureau of Motor Vehicles must provide proof of citizenship 1. The injunction takes effect ahead of the October 5 voter registration deadline for the midterm elections 1. The judge determined that the requirement, which took effect for the first time this year, conflicts with the National Voter Registration Act because it demands information beyond the "minimum necessary information" 1.
Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose stated that he will immediately appeal the decision 1. This development comes as South Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming have also implemented similar proof-of-citizenship requirements this year 1. Furthermore, a 2025 study by the University of Maryland estimated that 21.3 million voting-eligible Americans do not have or have difficulty obtaining documents to prove their citizenship 1.
