  • would that include a ride to the DMV that might be unreachably far away?

    would that include forcing all DMV locations to remain open 7 days a week and until late at night, so folks who have to work earlier and later than their DMV’ business hours could actually participate?

    would it include the costs of replacing other required documents if lost, like birth certificate or social security card?

    would it reimburse lost money from having to take unpaid time off of work to go get this “free” ID?

    would it compel employers to give workers time off, so workers whose employers deny them even unpaid time off have some legal protection?







  • what you suggested has been a republican talking point. wisconsin republicans admitted that they forced it into state law because it results in fewer democratic voters being able to vote.

    not everyone can afford to travel (thus not everyone needs a state ID). and many can’t get to a DMV without taking time off of work that their employers may not allow even if unpaid. and many can’t even physically get to a DMV in areas with poor or no public transit. but they still have the right to vote.
