A good chunk of America think it is about just bringing you ID to vote. It is not. It is about disenfranchizing women and others.

Sheâs right. Text SAVE to 63033 to tell your senators to vote no on the SAVE America Act.

(941 posts)That would be acceptable under the SAVE act. Minnesota is one of them - I don't recall the other four. In Minnesota it's the "Enhanced ID" and to get one you need to provide the same documents as you would for a passport. When I needed to renew my DL a few years ago I opted to spend the extra bucks to get one. It took a while to get the ducks lined up. My job at the time allowed me the flexibility to take the time I needed to get it done (I'm certain most people don't have that flexibility).
