Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, any person who is a U.S. citizen, who is at least 18 years of
age, and who has resided in a ward or election district in this state for at least ten days before the election at which the person is voting may vote in that ward or
election district at that election unless the person is disqualified from voting, in
certain cases specified by law, as the result of a felony conviction or an adjudication of incompetency. With limited exceptions, a person must register before voting and in certain cases must provide proof of residence. With certain limited exceptions, before being permitted to vote at any polling place, an eligible elector currently must provide his or her name and address. If the elector is not registered, the elector must provide a specified form of proof of residence in order to register. If an elector is not able to present any required proof of residence, as an alternative, current law permits an elector’s registration information to be corroborated by another qualified elector who resides in the same municipality. In addition, . . .

This bill creates an identification certificate to be issued by DOT beginning at the time that DOT implements the provisions of the federal REAL ID Act. A person is eligible for an identification certificate if the person provides the same information that an elector is required to provide in order to register to vote and signs a statement affirming that the information is correct. Identification certificates must be the same size as an operator’s license but must be of a design that is readily distinguishable from the design of operator’s licenses and identification cards. Each identification certificate must bear the words “IDENTIFICATION CERTIFICATE.” As required by the federal REAL ID Act, identification certificates must clearly state on their face that they may not be accepted by any federal agency for federal identification or any other official purpose and must use a unique design or color indicator to alert federal agency and other law enforcement personnel that they may not be accepted for any
such purpose. Each identification certificate . . .

Citizenship Expectation
You must take the time and initiative to read for understanding and due diligence. As you can see, the "CLASS WAR and the RACE WAR" is on. It is up to those of all races, ethnic groups and economic status to create the medium and mean for an existence that is shared by all.

This bill as with many of the off-the-wall and deliberate moves afoot to return America to the good ole days of the South, full control by Caucasians, full control of the haves at the peril of the have nots is "unacceptable". You prove that it is unacceptable by being in the ring with a "knock-out punch". The knock-out punch here is being aware, providing your strong and winning opposition. It also means for those of us who know, prepare our neighbors that do not know.

This is an excellent OPPORTUNITY/collaborative effort FOR ALL of our churches.
