Yes

 @ISIDEWITHDiscuss this answer...8mos8MO

No

 @B8SKGKW from Nevada  answered…7mos7MO

No, photo ID verification could potentially harm individuals who want to hide their political standing

 @BDQRWRB from Nevada  answered…4wks4W

Only if the government issues every 18 year old an ID free of charge

 @BDJZWVKSocialist from Nevada  answered…1mo1MO

Any form of identification should be valid.

 @BD6GS7HProgressive  from Nevada  answered…2mos2MO

No. And for anyone who may think differently on how secure our elections are. My ballot got set back in 2024 because my signature didn't match the one on my license that I signed at the DMV. I had 24 hours to correct it. They are the most secure place I've lived.

 @BD3BDY3Independent from Nevada  answered…2mos2MO

Nevada already does require ID when voting in-person

 @BCQZM3C from Nevada  answered…2mos2MO

Only if everyone gets an ID for free automatically.

 @BBX2HKK from Nevada  answered…3mos3MO

There should be some form of identification, but it should include a choice between passports, social security numbers, birth certificates, or any other valid form of government identification.

 @B94TJ3QDemocrat from Nevada  answered…6mos6MO

Yes, but make ids much more accessible or do not have voter id laws

 @B8P2G66 from Nevada  answered…7mos7MO

Yes, but make sure everyone is issued a standard photo ID of no cost to the individual.

 @B87Q246Independent from Nevada  answered…8mos8MO

Yes, but make sure everyone has access to getting an ID at not cost.

 @B84NXQQNo Labels from Nevada  answered…8mos8MO

18-year-olds should be issued an ID when they turn 18 at no cost. Then, if a photo ID were needed for voting, everyone would receive one without having to give up hard-earned money for a basic necessity.

 @B8MG4NL from Nevada  answered…7mos7MO

Yes, but access should be easier and other options for identification should be available.

 @B8L2B3G from Nevada  answered…7mos7MO

Yes, but only if every 18 year old is automatically registered to vote and provided with a free photo ID

 @B8DGGLVWomen’s Equality from Nevada  answered…7mos7MO

I think asking for id to be sure that they are of age to vote is and should be a requirement.

Elizabeth Warren Walks Back Murder Comments

Congressional Democrats broadly denounced the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson Friday morning, after Republicans started accusing Sen. Elizabeth Warren of excusing violence.“No one's condoning this,” said Rep. Brad Schneider (D-Ill.). “Violence never is the right answer for anything. And it was a horrible murder, a tragic loss for his family.” Warren this week condemned the shooting, but added that people “can be pushed only so far.”"We'll say it over and over," Warren said on MSNBC’S “The ReidOut.” " Violence is never the answer. This guy [Luigi Mangione] gets a trial who's allegedly killed the CEO of UnitedHealth, but you can only push people so far, and then they start to take matters into their own hands."In a statement to POLITICO, Warren said, “Violence is never the answer. Period. I should have been much clearer that there is never a justification for murder.” Top Republicans denounced Warren's comments and the walked-back rhetoric, with House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) calling it “inappropriate and dangerous.”Some House Democrats asked about the incident on Thursday pivoted the conversation to discuss policy options on health care or gun safety.“I don't really know that this is really a space that Congress normally weighs in on,” said Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas). “But at the end of the day, I think it’s an opportunity, because now people are talking about health care and to talk about the fact that this industry has honestly not been as helpful as it could be.”“Violence is never the answer,” said Rep. Troy Carter (D-La.). “We know that there are people suffering, there’s great challenges in healthcare. There's great challenges, and people have, in fact, been wronged, but a process of governance is the way to address that, not violence.”And Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) who denounced the murder, said the killer should be prosecuted and that “I do know that allegedly a ghost gun was used, and we should also ban ghost guns. There's no reason for them beyond the streets.”

Israeli Bombings Kill 2,300 In Lebanon in 3 weeks

Lebanese authorities say Israeli bombing has killed more than 2,300 people and injured almost 11,000, mostly in the past three weeks, with Israeli attacks reaching areas far beyond Hizbollah’s traditional bastions of support in the south.The Israeli military has ordered people living in more than a quarter of Lebanon to flee, according to a UN calculation, as its fight with the Iran-backed Shia militant group Hizbollah threatens to engulf the Mediterranean country.Lebanese authorities say Israeli bombing has killed more than 2,300 people and injured almost 11,000, mostly in the past three weeks, with Israeli attacks reaching areas far beyond Hizbollah’s traditional bastions of support in the south.More than 1mn people have fled their homes in Lebanon in under a month, according to its government, a dramatic forced movement of the population in a country of only about 5mn inhabitants with a land mass smaller than the US state of Connecticut. Israeli forces began a ground offensive in south Lebanon two weeks ago, in their fourth invasion of the country in under five decades. They had already destroyed large parts of the densely populated southern Beirut suburb where Hizbollah had its headquarters, and killed many top militant commanders in air strikes, including former leader Hassan Nasrallah.Rema Jamous Imseis, Middle East director of UNHCR, told journalists in Geneva that “over 25 per cent of [Lebanon is] under a direct Israeli military evacuation order”. “People are heeding these calls to evacuate and they’re fleeing with almost nothing,” she added, saying that 80 per cent of the shelters opened by the Lebanese government — mostly in schools — were now full.
