The text of H.R.7296 explicitly includes a requirement that voters present government-issued photo identification to vote.
The introduced text of H.R.7296 (the SAVE America Act) contains Section 3, “Photo voter identification required for voting in a Federal election,” which states that “Each individual voting in an election for Federal office shall present an eligible photo identification document.” The section requires in‑person voters to present a tangible government‑issued photo ID at the time of voting and requires absentee voters to include a copy of an eligible photo ID with both the absentee ballot request and the absentee ballot submission; it also defines eligible issuing authorities and includes verification provisions. Verdict — True: the bill as introduced would require voters in federal elections to present government‑issued photo identification because Section 3 explicitly mandates presentation of an eligible photo ID.
