Today we did a big thing. This morning, our 501c4, Project ID Action Fund, introduced a bill to Congress. The first bill of its kind. A bill to establish a free Federal ID for all Americans. This. Is. Huge. This is what we have dreamt about and worked for from day one. This is everything.
Led by the incredible Representatives Sean Casten and Cori Bush, the IDs for an Inclusive Democracy Act (isn’t that the best name ever) will ensure that every American over 14 can get the ID they need to change their lives for free. In every state. And they won’t even have to go to the DMV. They’ll be able to get their ID at the Post Office, the library, even qualified local organizations. This changes everything.
Imagine 21 million American adults having access to the ID they need for jobs, housing, health care, and more. Imagine no more veterans sleeping on the streets because they don’t have the ID they need for shelter. Imagine no more mothers living in cars with their children because they don’t have the ID they need to get a job. Imagine no more seniors dying of cancer because they don’t have the ID they need for health care. Imagine everyone in every state never having to worry about having an ID again. We did imagine it. And now we’re doing it.
The work we do at Spread The Vote + Project ID ([link removed]) is vital. We’re on the ground every day helping people get the IDs they need to change their lives. But with this bill, we can make sure everyone has free and easy access to an ID, and we can put ourselves out of business. That has always been our goal, and now we’re closer than ever.
Today was the start of the fight of our lives. The fight of 21 million Americans’ lives. The fight to change our country forever. Today was the start, but we have a long road ahead. And we need you on our team.
If you’re on board to do the biggest thing we will ever do, visit idforid.org to find out how you can get involved. Call your Member of Congress, share the message on social media, buy some swag so people ask you about it on the street! And if you are one of the first 100 people to donate $25 or more, we’ll even send you a sticker with our gorgeous hashtag logo: #idforid.

We can still do big things in this country. I have a favorite number: 71669- the day we landed on the moon. It’s my reminder that when we all work together towards a common goal, using all of our ingenuity and wit and innovation, we can do absolutely anything. We can do the impossible. We can do a big thing.
So let’s do this big thing. Join us on the Action Fund side and let’s make history, together.
