After photo ID sponsor Rep. Stanley Cox (R-114) attempted unsuccessfully to pass out a drastically changed version of HJR 9 because of a clerical error, 5 of his colleagues used the time between committee hearings wisely. As you can see from a copy of the letter sent from ranking member Rep. Michael Frame (D-105), 5 of 12 House Elections committee members felt that affected voters and concerned organizations should be allowed to provide public comment on the bill which would now produce a massive fiscal note and would put the reform on a fast track to implementation if passed. Please help convince the rest of the House Elections Committee & your legislators that photo ID is too costly to Missouri Voters and to the state. Call your legislator today!
