The House passed a bill by a vote of 228-196 that would require voters to provide photo identification in the 2008 election, and by 2010, voters in federal elections will be required to present photo identification showing that they are U.S. citizens. States will be required to provide, and deliver the ID cards at no charge to all citizens that cannot afford to pay the nominal fee
Even though we already need ID to buy beer, get a job, rent an apartment, or even to buy cigarrettes, 196 of our elected representatives voted against this bill citing a variety of reasons.
Since our country has an abundance of undocumented immigrants, and no shortage of people in the world that wish us to die like dogs in the street, can anyone give me one reason why requiring ID’s is not a good idea?
What’s wrong with having an identification card, is just a piece of paper with a picture and perhaps some contact indormation. It is better to know everybody living in the US than just play like don’t exsist. Just think about renting a movie or anything you need that piece of id.
