The Star-Tribune reports: A group of lawmakers tasked with studying and potentially proposing a
bill to require Wyoming voters to show identification at polling places
decided not to pursue the matter Tuesday. …Committee co-chairwoman Rep. Rosie Berger, R-Sheridan, said there
wouldn’t be enough time to research and craft a bill to address the
issues.
Wyoming legislators, including the legislative leadership of the Wyoming Republican Party, would have you believe they simply did not have the time to research or draft voter ID legislative language. However, the lawmakers certainly had the time to raise the fuels tax by .10 cents a gallon and create a new lottery system, multiple ways to raise revenue and spend citizens money. With all the new revenue, perhaps the overworked legislators will now be able to hire additional interns to assist with the strenuous research.
