The facts are that states determine their current requirements to register to vote. Our country at the federal level prohibits discrimination against any group of American citizens, or poll taxes, in voting.


Under the current system, voter fraud incidence is 0.0002 to 0.0004% of votes. That is several hundred votes in a national election. Voter fraud is virtually non-existent


Additionally, most of those cases of voter fraud could not be eliminated by a stricter photo ID requirement (felons voting when they should not, etc).

Thus requiring stricter requirements to vote has zero basis in need.

Implementing stricter requirements to vote will measurably disinfranchise up to 5 million valid, currently voting American citizens, and take their right to vote away, as determined by our judicial system, who is overturning restrictive Voter ID laws.
