House Republican Caucus Members Voice Stance on Voter ID Legislation

width=200AUSTIN - As Voter ID legislation is addressed in the House Elections Committee members of the House Republican Caucus address their priorities to defend the integrity of the electoral system. Below is statement of principles signed by House Republican Caucus members. We are closely monitoring the Voter ID bill and are fervently committed to advancing a Voter ID bill. Our principles concerning what legislation must contain are clear this bill must:
  • Ensure a valid photo identification is needed to vote
  • effect at the next possible uniform election date
  • free of any registration requirements such as same day voter registration that dilutes the intent of the bill which is ensuring fair and accurate elections
  •  Increase criminal penalties for voter fraud and registration
We are all strongly encouraging Chairman Todd Smith and the other Representatives on the Elections Committee to present a bill which protects the integrity of the electoral process is fully implemented at the next possible uniform election date and ensures a reasonable period of advanced registration to allow voter registrars the time to protect the integrity of the registration process."
