The Texas house just passed a bill requiring voters to present identification at the polls, harsher than any state has passed in recent years, including Indiana.
The goal of these sorts of laws is to decrease the number of voters and myths like the existence of massive voter fraud schemes that steal elections are used to justify them. And when people spend a lot of time and money trying to get people to believe that a nonexistent problem exists, and then their solution to said nonexistent problem is something that doesn't even fully solve the problem but advances their own agenda, people should be suspicious.
