Election Laws - As introduced, makes changes to the forms of identification used to verify a person's identity for voting purposes. - Amends TCA Title 2.
HB 934 amends Tennessee's voting laws to require voters to present a photo ID showing their current residential address at polling places. It specifies that acceptable IDs must include the voter's name, photo, address, citizenship proof, and expiration date, while banning student IDs from institutions of higher education. The bill also clarifies that address verification can use documents like utility bills or lease agreements (excluding digital sources) and updates procedures for provisional ballots.
