What happened

Well supportedReported by 3 independent outlets

Department of Homeland Security agents conducted door-to-door operations in several states to investigate potential noncitizen voters. These operations included an arrest of a 72-year-old man from Belize, who was accused of illegally voting in past elections. Meanwhile, Protect Democracy filed a lawsuit against the federal government regarding the door-knocking campaign. A federal judge subsequently ordered the operations to stop.

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The lawsuit and judicial order challenge the scope of federal enforcement activities conducted by Homeland Security Investigations. Critics argue that the show of force could intimidate legal voters. The effort was part of a surge initiative aimed at cracking down on alleged criminal voter fraud.
