Bloomberg's Amy Morris has details from Washington.

Top Democrats in the House and Senate, along with their campaign committees and the Democratic National Committee, allege that the executive order dramatically restricts the ability of Americans to vote by mail, impinging on traditional state authority.

Under Trump's order, the Postal Service would be banned from sending mail-in ballots to anyone not on the list of U.S.

citizens.

A separate lawsuit was filed in Boston federal court by the League of Women Voters, calling Trump's order an extraordinary and abusive assertion of executive power.

The Trump budget won't address entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare, and it's not expected to include 10-year deficit projections, which means the White House won't offer a full picture of how it projects the president's policies adding to future deficits.

The president has said he will be seeking to boost defense spending to $1.5 trillion from less than $1 trillion in the current fiscal year, but it's not clear how this massive increase will be spent.

President Trump's move led House Republicans to shelve any talk about cutting their Easter recess short.

But it also bypasses Congress raising questions around the president's authority to redirect spending without a vote by lawmakers.
