Students from other states who choose to attend Indiana's colleges are permitted, constitutionally, to vote in the state's elections. Thus Indiana's HB 1311, which is intended to suppress that vote, is illegal and should be defeated.
Why is this important?
Indiana has the fourth-largest number of out-of-state college students in America. Like all such students, they're allowed, constitutionally, to vote either at home or at college. But now a member of the Indiana House has introduced HB 1311, prohibiting out-of-state students from voting in Indiana's elections. This is an unconstitutional effort to suppress the vote, so HB 1311 must be rejected.
