A state representative has proposed legislation requiring would-be voters to show a driver’s license, an armed services ID card or certain student IDs before receiving a ballot.
The proposal surfaced as one of 1,157 amendments to the House’s $47.6 billion budget for fiscal 2022. Alongside his amendments to fund improvements to Robinson State Park in Agawam and limit the governor’s emergency powers, Rep. Nick Boldyga filed a proposal to require a photo ID for voting and implement an appeal process for voters who don’t have a valid ID, similar to a New Hampshire voter ID law.

One of the few big institutions to sign on to the idea is Rutgers University in New Jersey, which has said that all 65,0000 students and 9,000 faculty members must be vaccinated before returning to the campus in the fall. But at the same time, leaders in some states, including Missouri Gov. Mike Parson, are adamant that they do not support vaccine passports.
