The White House announced Wednesday that President Donald Trump signed an executive order that dissolves his Presidential Advisory Commission on Election Integrity. President Trump issued the following statement:

"Despite substantial evidence of voter fraud, many states have refused to provide the Presidential Advisory Commission on Election Integrity with basic information relevant to its inquiry.  Rather than engage in endless legal battles at taxpayer expense, today I signed an executive order to dissolve the Commission, and have asked the Department of Homeland Security to review these issues and determine next courses of action.”

Update 1/4/17: Donald Trump tweeted about the decision Thursday morning:
