If we decided to provide these ID's without any fee whatsoever then it wouldn't be a tactic for voter suppression. I'd get behind a fee free ID card that can be gotten in multiple places in each voting district if that is the proposal.

Somehow elected officials always find a way to make getting something as hard as possible.

How about free IDs offered at polling stations. If they can get there to vote, they can get their to obtain a free picture ID

No need to repeat it again.  I am not wasting my time on a person who refuses to accept facts.

Nobody asked you to waste your time. I just cannot rap my head around a belief that you should not be required to prove you are who you are when you vote and I have 0 idea why that would be a partisan issue. But "even if a list of Republicans" stated it then it must be an undisputable fact.
