Digest

HB 304 requires voters presenting a driver’s license or personal identification certificate marked as “VALID FOR VOTING ONLY WITH VERIFICATION OF ELIGIBILITY” to show proof of U.S. citizenship before voting. If this proof is not provided, the voter may cast a provisional ballot and has six days post-election to verify their eligibility with the required documentation. The bill also mandates that any new or renewed identification lacking proof of citizenship must display this voting eligibility disclaimer.
