CMV: requiring voter id laws is not racist and should be preferred.

I read so much on Reddit about

“voter ID laws are racist”

“You shouldn’t have to show any form of ID to vote”

“For Some people it’s too hard to get an ID”

To genuinely believe it’s not a good idea or racism to have to present an ID to vote is ridiculous.

There is video proof that places in NYC have safe havens where illegal and unregistered voters can show up and vote.

Places in California are making it illegal to even ask for ID.

I need ID to:

Buy alcohol Go to an R rated movie Drive a car Have a job Get on a plane Enter certain federal building Rent a hotel Adopt a pet Rent a car Open a bank account Apply for food stamps Apply for welfare Rent or buy a house

Now all of sudden it’s racist to make people get an ID? It’s too hard to get an ID

My opinions:

1. It’s not racist. It’s just simple logic. To confirm you are a citizen show us your ID. We don’t want anyone being able to fly in and just vote on shit that they aren’t even a legal citizen. And we don’t want pulling using a fake name to vote.

2. It is not hard to get an id and the cost is low. To be a functioning adult you should be capable of getting a physical ID. It isn’t hard. People make it out like it’s impossible for poor people to find a way to get an ID. It isn’t, and IDs are free in states where registration is required

Be responsible and take 1 single day in your adult life and do some planning and get an ID. The instructions for what you need are online so figure it out. We need certain requirements and can’t make laws around rare exceptions.

if you are too poor to afford the DMV fees for a state ID, go to your social services dept where you will be issued a voucher waiving the fees.

You can order it online as most Americans are issued their first photo id before turning 18yrs old. Also, let's not forget that ID cannot and has never been waived to go to school, open a bank account, obtain govt financial assistance, get a library card. All political parties know about this, all of them and yet they have told you that we need to get rid of voter id laws because of the financial burden, Knowing this is a bold faced lie, why are they lying? It's pretty obvious!

Btw the vouchers that waive id fees, they have been around for decades.
