Homeless ID Bill Action Alert

Can you take less than five minutes to help homeless individuals who need identification? S2251, An Act to provide identification to youth and adults experiencing homelessness, passed in the Senate in each of the last four legislative sessions. Now we need the House to act. Please contact your state Representative and ask them to urge House leadership to bring the homeless ID bill to the floor for a vote. Find your Representative here. Read LWVMA testimony here. For more information, read the Coalition fact sheet here.
