HB 6042 Connecticut House · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT REQUIRING GOVERNMENT-ISSUED PHOTO IDENTIFICATION FOR VOTING PURPOSES.

HB 6042 requires voters to present a current government-issued photo ID displaying their name and address at polling places to cast a ballot. It directly affects all voters participating in person at polling locations. The bill establishes a fee waiver program to cover costs for obtaining a photo ID (like a driver's license or state ID card) for voting purposes. This creates a concrete policy change by mandating ID presentation while removing financial barriers to obtaining required identification.
