DNC Suing to Compel the Trump Administration to Say If It's Planning to Put Troops at the Polls

Democrats have given several reasons for opposing the SAVE Act and say one reason they're holding out is that they want a guarantee that the Trump administration isn't going to station federal agents or military personnel at polling places nationwide this November. There's a fear among Democrats that President Donald Trump wants to post ICE agents at polling places to intimidate non-citizens.
