Protect Voting Rights by Requiring Voter ID for all Eligible Voters. 🗳🇺🇲
If you can't get an ID you shouldnt be voting.

Does not matter what GOP says or Democrats want. The American people, as a majority, want this. We will vote them out if they refuse to give us voting rights protection for states run by the GOP, mostly that are trying to restrict our voting system. So, only they can win.
