TALLAHASSEE, Florida, Oct. 25 -- Brennan Center for Justice at New York University School of Law issued the following news release (edited):
A federal court ... ruled that the right to vote cannot be denied on account of wealth. Plaintiffs challenged a Florida law that creates wealth-based hurdles to voting and undermines Floridians' overwhelming 2018 passage of Amendment 4, which restored voting rights to over a million people.
