A new proposed amendment would make voter ID a new requirement in Pennsylvania.
Under the current law, voters must show an ID if they are voting at a new location for the first time. However, legislation sponsored by Republican Senator Judy Ward of Blair County would expand that law.
“Proposing that voters show verification, not just the first time, but every time they vote as a Constitutional amendment allows Pennsylvanians to take the lead on how they want to further secure our election process,” Ward said.
This bill would need to pass the full House and Senate before being put on the ballot for voters to decide.
