ZAPresident Donald Trump has removed the remaining three commissioners of the bipartisan Election Assistance Commission (EAC), with one resigning and two being fired via a White House email. The EAC, which oversees election administration and voting system certification, had four commissioners, all of whom were confirmed by the Senate. The firings come after a Supreme Court ruling that expanded executive authority to dismiss members of independent agencies and amid Trump's efforts to increase federal oversight of voting processes ahead of the midterms. The White House cited the Supreme Court decision as justification, claiming the actions align with protecting election integrity. The EAC's future remains uncertain, as it is unclear how Trump will replace the commissioners, despite the law allowing presidential appointments.
