Iowa Attorney General Brenna Bird Celebrates Win Defending English-Only Voter Registration Forms

By Zach Hoffman

DES MOINES, IOWA (May 9, 2025) — Iowa Attorney General Brenna Bird released the following statement regarding the Iowa Supreme Court decision on non-English voter registration forms:

“Our win in the Iowa Supreme Court affirms that English is the official language for Iowa’s elections,” AG Bird said.

“Under the law, all official documents, including voter-registration forms, are written in English. The case against the Iowa Secretary of State’s office jeopardized election integrity. Thanks to today’s decision, we will continue to follow all federal and state laws for elections. This is why Iowa’s elections are among the safest and most secure in the country.”
