A lower court's nationwide block on U.S. Postal Service mail-in ballot rules remains after the Supreme Court ruled against the Trump administration.

Justice Samuel Alito, joined by Justice Clarence Thomas, dissented, while Justice Brett Kavanaugh agreed the rules could not be implemented so close to the election.
