(SBA) - As the 2024 election approaches, the People's Law Library of Iowa has launched a new research topic dedicated to Voting Law. This timely addition offers Iowans easy access to essential information about voting rights, voter registration, election processes, and legal protections for voters.
The new topic, available on the People's Law Library website, is designed to ensure that citizens have the knowledge needed to fully participate in the democratic process. Voting Law covers a wide array of issues, including voter eligibility, voter registration, and absentee voting. The People’s Law Library serves as an entry point to Iowa and federal laws on voting, and links to trusted state and federal government sources.
“We are thrilled to introduce this new resource just in time for the upcoming elections,” said State Librarian Michael Scott. “Understanding voting laws is crucial for Iowans to feel confident that they can vote and have their voices heard.”
The People's Law Library of Iowa continues to grow in response to Iowans’ need for reliable, accessible legal information. Since its launch in October 2022, the online resource has become an essential tool for residents seeking legal help on a wide variety of topics, from family law to consumer rights and more.
With the addition of the Voting Law section, the People's Law Library further expands its commitment to empowering Iowans with the legal knowledge they need. For more information, visit the Voting Law in Iowa research topic page.
The People's Law Library of Iowa is a free, online legal resource available to all Iowans. Managed by a partnership between the State Library of Iowa and the University of Iowa Law Library, the website provides information on a range of legal topics and helps connect individuals with legal resources, services, and guidance.
