Tuesday morning is your opportunity to testify before Missouri lawmakers about the issue of photo ID for voters.
The Missouri House Elections and Elected Officials Committee will hold a hearing at 10 am at the Capitol in Jefferson City to discuss the issue.
Committee Chairman Dan Shaul’s (R-Imperial) office says they’ll hear testimony this morning. The committee will discuss where they are heading and will discuss the bill approved this year by the GOP-controlled House.
It included voter ID and the use of a paper ballot.
Voter ID is supported by State Rep. Cheri Toalson Reisch (R-Hallsville), who says there’s been voter fraud in Missouri and nationwide. State Rep. Joe Adams (D-University City), blasts voter ID, saying it would disenfranchise voters.
Representatives Reisch and Adams serve on the House Elections and Elected Officials Committee.
