“The House plans to vote this week on a three-month stopgap funding bill as the clock ticks down and Donald Trump pressures Republicans to shut down the government without policy concessions they have no realistic chance of achieving.”
The policy concession? To pass a law that would make it illegal to vote if women changed their names if married and DID NOT change it on the birth certificate.
No joke.
It would become effective BEFORE the election.
“Lacking a passport or other proof of citizenship with their married names, they must produce both a birth certificate (with the seal of the state where it was issued; no copies allowed) and a current form of identification—both with the exact same name on them”
