Jason Snead, Executive Director of Honest Elections Project Action:
“This is a great first step in securing Arizona’s elections. In November, Arizonans will now have the chance to vote on a measure to require voter ID for every ballot, including ballots cast by mail, and to make IDs free to anyone who needs one. That safeguard builds confidence in Arizona’s election system and adds a much-needed layer of protection against fraud. Polling consistently shows that Americans across the political spectrum embrace voter ID. We applaud lawmakers for giving Arizonans the opportunity to choose to make it easier to vote and harder to cheat.”
