Voting rights groups sue Indiana over laws requiring temporary ID holders to prove citizenship within 30 days, claiming they unfairly burden naturalized and low-income voters.
Voting rights groups have sued Indiana officials over two 2024 laws requiring voters with temporary driver’s licenses or IDs to prove citizenship within 30 days, arguing the rules use outdated data, create unnecessary barriers, and disproportionately affect naturalized and low-income voters.
The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court, claims the laws violate federal civil rights and voter registration laws, citing difficulties in obtaining proof of citizenship and failures to release required records.
Plaintiffs include the League of Women Voters of Indiana, Common Cause Indiana, and Exodus Refugee Immigration, who seek to block enforcement and compel disclosure of affected voters.
The state says the measures ensure election integrity, but no evidence of widespread noncitizen voting has been found in Indiana or similar states.
Los grupos de derechos de voto demandaron a Indiana por leyes que requieren que los titulares de identificación temporal demuestren su ciudadanía dentro de los 30 días, alegando que son una carga injusta para los votantes naturalizados y de bajos ingresos.
