While it is true that the DOJ requested full voter rolls from states starting in 2025 and sued numerous states (including many Biden-won states) for refusing, there is no public evidence confirming that literally all 25 Biden-won states refused, though the states known to have complied were all Trump-won states.","claims":[{"claim":"All 25 states Biden won in 2020 have refused to comply with DOJ request to share voter rolls","assessment":"The DOJ requested full voter rolls from states starting in May 2025, and many Biden-won states (including California, Michigan, Pennsylvania, New York, Wisconsin, Minnesota, New Hampshire, Maine, Oregon, Connecticut, Arizona, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Washington) refused and were subsequently sued. However, it is unclear whether literally all 25 Biden-won states refused. Sources report that 10–12 states complied overall, but the complying states identified in reporting (Indiana, Kansas, Ohio, and other Republican-led states) were all Trump-won states in 2020. No Biden-won state has been publicly identified as having complied, but a complete state-by-state list of compliance has not been published by the DOJ, making the absolute claim ('all 25') difficult to independently verify with certainty.","status":"Mixed"},{"claim":"The DOJ requested states share voter rolls to ensure compliance with federal law","assessment":"Multiple sources confirm that beginning in May 2025, the DOJ's Civil Rights Division sent letters to at least 40–47 states demanding complete, unredacted voter registration lists, citing the National Voter Registration Act and Help America Vote Act as the legal basis for ensuring states maintain accurate voter rolls.","status":"Confirmed"}],"caveats":"The DOJ has not published a complete list of which states complied and which refused, so verifying the exact status of all 25 Biden-won states relies on tracking individual state responses and lawsuits.","sources":[{"title":"Tracker of Justice Department Requests for Voter Information","url":"https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/research-reports/tracker-justice-department-requests-voter-information"},{"title":"The Justice Department is suing states for sensitive voter data","url":"https://ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/04/06/the-department-of-justice-is-suing-states-for-sensitive-voter-data-%E2%88%92-an-election-law-scholar-explains"},{"title":"Justice Department Sues Five Additional States for Failure to Produce Voter Rolls","url":"https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/justice-department-sues-five-additional-states-failure-produce-voter-rolls"},{"title":"Trump DOJ sues PA for voter data in nationwide election push","url":"https://www.spotlightpa.org/news/2025/09/justice-department-voter-registration-lawsuit-states-elections"}]},"communityNote":"Misleading.
