circuit court

The Electronic Frontier Foundation is pressing the DC Circuit to vacate a drone flight restriction that effectively criminalized recording immigration agents from the air. The group argues the restriction violates First Amendment rights by blocking documentation of federal immigration enforcement. The case is drawing attention amid ongoing debate over transparency and accountability in immigration operations.

A circuit court has ruled that Ohio's Bureau of Motor Vehicles may require proof of citizenship when handling voter registration. The decision lets the state enforce stricter documentation rules at BMV locations, a move supporters frame as protecting election integrity and critics warn could discourage eligible voters from registering. The case is part of a broader national fight over proof-of-citizenship requirements for voting.
