Hi everyone! H370 and H372 are going to the Joint Committee on Election Laws on June 8. (Read more here.) These are voter ID laws – creating barriers to voting for many people, especially people of color. Let’s tweet to the Chairs & Vice Chairs of the committee to let them know we don’t want voter ID laws in Massachusetts! More to follow!!
Greedy Old Pricks at it again:
Current:
Section 45A. An applicant for registration may produce papers of naturalization for inspection if he so desires, and notation of such production shall be made a part of the registration of said applicant.
Brad’s Proposed Replacement
Section 45A. An applicant for registration shall prove, to the satisfaction of the Clerk or Registrar, that he is a citizen of the United States. Such proof may be made by producing a birth certificate or papers of naturalization for inspection, notation of which shall be made a part of the registration of said applicant.
