Voter ID laws are part of a broad, well-funded, and deliberate effort to block millions of Americans from the voting booth. Every year, millions of voters either can’t vote because they lack the required ID or stay home because they are confused about whether they need an ID to vote.
This is especially true of Indigenous voters, who face a web of confusing and changing laws with regard to Tribal IDs. Only 16 of the 38 states with voter ID laws explicitly accept Tribal ID.
If you or anyone you know needs help securing a voter ID, please reach out to VoteRiders. We provide free help navigating complex bureaucracy, making appointments, and covering the fees and transportation.
Time is running out to get an accepted ID in time to vote on November 5. Encourage everyone you know to do an ID check today and make sure they have what they need to make their voice heard.
In solidarity,
