IIRC, one TX State Rep has already filed a bill to require a photo ID that proves citizenship when voting.

IIRC, one TX State Rep has already filed a bill to require a photo ID that proves citizenship when voting.

There are already FIVE different bills filed regarding photo identification to vote.

Four in the House, 1 in the Senate.

There's a lot of duplication among them. I didn't spend any time trying to determine what differences might exist. More than likely, the 1 in the Senate is a duplicate of one of the House bills.

However, none of them require proof of citizenship. All accept a valid driver's license, which doesn't require citizenship.

Good. IF I remember correctly a few years back we voted for the requirement to show ID when voting....I thought it passed...guess not.
