Priorities USA Foundation Statement on Iowa HF 516 Injunction Win

Priorities USA Foundation Statement on Iowa HF 516 Injunction Win

In response to Judge Karen A. Romano granting a preliminary injunction against a number of provisions in Iowa HF 516, a law that imposes unconstitutional restrictions on the right to vote, Guy Cecil, Chairman of the Priorities USA Foundation, released the following statement:

“We are pleased that Judge Romano has stopped the state from enforcing HF 516’s burdensome absentee voting restrictions and ordered Secretary of State Paul Pate to halt his deceptive advertising campaign around the state’s impending voter identification requirements. When eligible Iowa citizens cast their ballots this fall—in person or by mail—they should not be encumbered by the onerous and discriminatory restrictions contained in HF 516 or misled about the new ID requirements. Today’s ruling is just the first step to ensuring that every Iowan is able to exercise their fundamental right to vote.”
