Age of majority shifts ripple through states and courts
The article surveys two years of lawmaking that lowered the age of majority to 18 in seven states and hints at wider social effects. It notes 18 year olds gaining rights to contract, own property, marry with and without consent, and in some states drink, plus a Capitol debate on 18 year olds full adult rights and numerous freedoms. It also covers Iowa reapportionment court actions triggering a likely September primary shift, plus a House bill to abolish lower courts in favor of magistrates and a small claims process.
