202A.155 INTERPRETER SERVICES; CAUCUS MATERIALS.
A communicatively impaired individual who needs interpreter services at a precinct caucus
shall so notify the major political party whose caucus the individual plans to attend. Notice must
be given by letter or electronic mail to the state office of the major political party before the
precinct caucus date. The major political party shall promptly attempt to secure the services of
one or more interpreters if available and shall assume responsibility for the cost of the services if
provided. The state central committee of the major political party shall determine the process
for reimbursing interpreters.
A visually impaired individual may notify the county or legislative district committee of
the major political party whose precinct caucus the individual plans to attend, that the individual
requires caucus materials in audio tape, Braille, or large type format. Upon receiving the request,
the county or legislative district committee shall provide all official written caucus materials as
soon as they are available, so that the visually impaired individual may have them converted to
audio tape, Braille, or large print format prior to the precinct caucus.
