2026年8月24日，美国最高法院作出紧急裁定，支持总统唐纳德·川普，解除了下级法院此前阻止其邮寄选票限制行政命令的禁令。
On August 24, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court issued an emergency ruling siding with President Donald J. Trump, lifting a lower court’s injunction that had blocked his executive order restricting mail-in ballots.
根据裁定，川普政府现在可以推进相关措施，同时完整案件仍在审理中。
According to the ruling, the Trump administration can now proceed with the measures while the full case continues to be heard.
川普的行政命令主要包括以下要求：
Trump’s executive order mainly includes the following requirements:
- 每封由美国邮政署（USPS）寄出的选票信封必须带有独特的条形码（barcode）并具备追踪功能；
Each USPS mail-in ballot envelope must have a unique barcode with tracking; - 国土安全部（DHS）与社会安全管理局（SSA）共同制作“批准选民名单”（或公民名单）；
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Social Security Administration (SSA) will jointly create an approved voter (or citizen) list; - USPS只能将选票寄给该名单上的选民。
USPS may only send ballots to voters on that list.
最高法院多数意见认为，政府在禁令持续的情况下将遭受“不可挽回的损害”，因此同意解除下级法院的冻结令，允许措施先行实施。
The Supreme Court majority held that the government would suffer “irreparable harm” if the injunction remained in place, and therefore lifted the lower court’s freeze, allowing the measures to take effect.
三位自由派大法官对此表示异议。有大法官警告，此举可能给即将到来的中期选举带来“混乱与不确定性”。
The three liberal justices dissented. One justice warned that the decision could inject “chaos and uncertainty” into the upcoming midterm elections.
此裁决正值2026年中期选举临近之际，直接关系到邮寄选票的发放与管理规则。川普政府强调，这些措施旨在加强选举诚信、防止非公民投票，并确保选票仅寄送给合格选民。
This ruling comes as the 2026 midterm elections approach and directly affects the rules for distributing and managing mail-in ballots. The Trump administration emphasizes that these measures are intended to strengthen election integrity, prevent non-citizen voting, and ensure ballots are only sent to eligible voters.
目前，该行政命令的全面合法性仍将继续在法院审理，但最高法院的紧急裁定已为川普政府清除了眼前的执行障碍。
The full legality of the executive order will continue to be litigated, but the Supreme Court’s emergency ruling has cleared the immediate obstacle to its implementation.
