    Ohio Republican lawmakers pass bill requiring absentee voters show a copy of their ID to vote

    Ohio Republican lawmakers passed a bill requiring absentee voters to provide a copy of their driver's license or state ID starting with the November 2027 election. The bill, which originated as a measure to waive birth certificate fees for homeless individuals, was amended to include ID requirements and passed the Senate 23-10 and the House 60-34. Supporters argue it strengthens election integrity, while opponents claim it will make voting harder for seniors and marginalized groups.
