The state had removed student IDs from its list of expressly accepted voter IDs, and the Court’s stay means they cannot be used as backup identification at the polls this November while the appeal proceeds. The Court did not issue a final ruling on the law’s legality. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson publicly dissented.
