Massachusetts joined 18 other states in a lawsuit against President Donald Trump’s March 25 executive order forcing the states to change their election procedures.

Democratic attorneys general filed at least three lawsuits in New England courts against the Trump administration in under 24 hours from Thursday evening into Friday afternoon.

The lawsuit, filed Thursday in federal court in Boston, seeks to have a judge block the provisions of Trump’s order and declare them “unconstitutional and void,” arguing that the order exceeds Trump’s authority and violates the separation of powers,

The order’s election requirements include documentary proof of citizenship and taking action to prosecute election crimes.

The lawsuit is the fourth legal challenge against Trump's executive order on voting. The attorneys general argue the order is "an unconstitutional attempt to seize control of elections."
