While a Kansas senate subcommittee was too lazy to find time to hear the Secretary of State’s request to implement citizenship verification sooner rather than later, the Kansas House has decided to help the Senate.
Secretary of State Kris Kobach’s proposal to
move up the date to require proof of citizenship for voter registration
is again before the Kansas Senate.
The Lawrence Journal -World reports that House members have replaced the contents of a Senate bill with
Kobach’s plan. Kobach said the move allows the Senate to vote on it.
Bottom Line: It appears that the concept of citizenship verification prior to registration is not yet dead.
