According to the Pew Research Center, 69 million women who have taken their spouse’s name do not have a birth certificate matching their legal name and could find it much harder to register to vote under the bill.
So, among other things, this is a step towards the Republican goal of denying women the vote.
Women of course, but also poor people and immigrants are far less likely to have all of the requisite documentation. Plus it's an opportunity to snipe at transgender people.
Also, I’m adopted…
My name was changed in the decree and not on my birth certificate.
I changed my last name cause I ain't being called the name of my fucken rapist.
I work with the homeless all over the country and the most common theme is that they rarely have all the paperwork to get their ID.
I talk to a lot of people who think voter ID requirements are no big deal, because they have always had an ID. They cannot fathom anyone living a life that doesn't conform to their experiences.
Honestly i'm gonna laugh when the 2nd gen immigrant vote turns out because they all have passports to visit family.
Why do you think they are targeting birthright citizenship? Just gonna declare all those minorities illegal immigrants and ship them to the concentration camps in El Salvador.
GOP: Putting the "suffer" back into suffragette
Then the suffragettes should just go back to the terrorism they chose to abandon at the start of WW1.
No taxation without representation, you fascist cuntrags!
Every time some liberal recommends peaceful protest, I yell that MLK Jr. couldn't have got where he got without Malcolm X, that Stonewall was a riot, and if someone takes away my right to vote, I'm going to behave in the way that got my foremothers the right to vote!
alot of women, especially conservatives relegate thier voting to thier husbands, they vote themselves typically.
