Take Action: Protect Florida's Right to Vote! |
What happened? Florida's HB 1381 takes aim at voting rights. If passed, the bill will remove several IDs currently accepted to vote (including student ID) and require Floridians to show a document proving their US citizenship (like a passport or birth certificate) when registering to vote or updating their voter registration. |
What's the problem? There are already laws in place to verify the citizenship and identity of Florida voters. HB 1381 would add extra barriers and bureaucracy to the state's elections, not security. The bill targets voter ID options that are more likely to be used by student and senior voters. It would also make voter registration much harder for Floridians and increase the risk that eligible US citizens are blocked from voting. |
What can you do? Tell Florida lawmakers that the state doesn't need unnecessary barriers to the ballot. Fill out this form to email your state legislators and ask them to stop HB 1381. |
