Nebraska Supreme Court Reviews Felon Voting Rights Laws

The court's decision could impact thousands of voters ahead of the 2024 presidential election.

Nebraska's Supreme Court is evaluating the constitutionality of laws restoring voting rights to felons.
Attorney General Mike Hilgers argues that only the state's Board of Pardons can reinstate voting rights.
The ACLU has sued, claiming the Secretary of State overstepped by halting voter registrations for felons.
More than 7,000 Nebraskans could be affected by the court's ruling.
The decision is expected before the voter registration deadline for the November election.
