SACRAMENTO, Calif. (CN) — Two of California’s top lawmakers filed suit Wednesday over language about a November ballot initiative seeking to impose voter ID requirements on the Golden State.
Assembly Speaker Robert Rivas and Senate President pro Tempore Monique Limón are challenging an argument in favor of Proposition 39.
A voter-initiated ballot measure, Proposition 39 would require people to show government-issued ID when casting a ballot in person.
The measure adds voter ID requirements and repeals no other procedure currently in place.
“These politicians know that they can’t win a fair vote on Prop 39’s bipartisan solution for voter ID because it has supermajority support from California voters,” he wrote.
