Reasoning

PolitiFact rated this Mostly False. Pennsylvania's Act 77 passed in October 2019 with bipartisan Republican support. The state constitution does not explicitly forbid mail-in voting — courts treated existing rules as a floor, not a ceiling. No constitutional challenge was filed until after Trump lost; one case was dismissed as untimely.
