Judge Blocks Iowa Voter Registration Law as Unconstitutional

A federal judge issued a preliminary injunction against Iowa's Senate File 2405, a new election law aimed at curbing voter registration by third-party groups. The law was challenged by the NAACP, League of Women Voters of Iowa, and Register Iowa as violating free speech and due process rights. The ruling stops the state from enforcing key parts of the law for now, preserving nonprofit voter registration drives that help register thousands of Iowans each year.
