Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL) signed into a law a new voting bill. The bill requires voters who want an absentee ballot to submit a driver's license number, a state identification number or the last four digits of their Social Security number. DeSantis and the Republicans that support this bill say this is to bolster confidence in the voting system once again, discussing again the 2020 elections and what they believe was potentially an illegitimate election. Many oppose this voting bill, and lawsuits have already been filed to reverse this decision. Many state this new law will cause discrimination and bar people from voting when they are eligible to vote. This new law for many is seen as a step back in what is a long road to voting rights and making sure everyone has access to vote freely.
