Indiana Files Brief in U.S. Supreme Court in 26th Amendment Case

On May 21, Indiana filed this brief in the U.S. Supreme Court in Tully v Okeson, 20-1244. This is the case over Indiana’s policy of letting age 65 voters vote by mail without excuse, but does not extend the same to younger voters. The plaintiffs argue this violates the 26th amendment, which forbids states from denying or abridging the right to vote on account of age. The lower courts had upheld the Indiana law. The U.S. Supreme Court had asked Indiana to respond.
