Ellison wants to ban photo ID as requirement for voting

Well lookee here at what our resident Muslim representative (D-MN) in Congress is opposed to along with the obligatory liberal tagline.
Requiring photo IDs to vote in federal elections would be banned under legislation introduced Wednesday by Rep. Keith Ellison, who said such requirements disenfranchise minorities, the poor, women, elderly and young people.


And this should make you sleep good at night in light of what is going on with the Mukassey confirmation. Granted Ellison is in the House and not the Senate so he doesn't have a vote, but he is siding with his fellow "Let's hold hearings for everything" representative.
Ellison, who serves on the Judiciary Committee, got an important backer for the bill, as the panel's chairman, Michigan Democrat John Conyers, signed on a co-sponsor.

I don't know maybe it is because of cases like this.
And this
And this
And those are just from an organization called ACORN.
