Civil rights groups challenge Floridas new voting law, House Bill 991, which requires proof of citizenship for voters. The NAACP and Retired Americans filed a lawsuit against Secretary of State Cord Byrd and all 67 county election offices, claiming the law disproportionately affects minorities, low-income individuals, seniors, and disabled voters. They cite examples from Kansas and New Hampshire, warning that similar rules could suppress eligible voices. The plaintiffs argue the law violates the First and Fourteenth Amendments and seek to halt its implementation.
