Digital service or at 18f, these are new governmentled groups of people that are trying to change the way the government buys technology and to change the way the government builds technology
Itself issues. Texas a quand m, university of texas at austin, the university of houston, other institutions, these arell public universities. And these individuals, these students, pay tuition to go to these public universities. And in response, theyre issued identification vehicles. Identification cards. But the state of texas has seen fit to say, thats not valid in order to vote. And i think that one example, and weve heard several others, basically exposes the fact that the movement to impose voter identification requirements is a fraud itself. Its a sham. The whole argument behind it is that were trying to protect the integrity of the Voting System. Heres the problem. Youre protecting the integrity of the Voting System by imposing a solution in search of a problem. Because none of these individuals in any of these states has been able to produce a scintilla of evidence of fraud. In fact, there are studies that have shown that there have been over a billion instances of americans e
