As of January first, there’s a new voter ID law in Texas. Senator Bryan Hughes is a co-author of the new law. He calls voter identification a hot issue. “Voting is a precious, blood bought right in America, in western civilization, we have to make sure we’re protecting it.”
Hughes, on a tour of his district, said people should be able to show that they are, who they say they are. Hughes said, “The Texas Attorney General has uncovered hundreds of cases of voter fraud down in Harris County, in Houston. They discovered three-thousand people who were registered to vote who were not even US citizens, so it’s a real problem.”
