Thanks for these two responses. I read in the bill a week or two ago that the most important items include the removal of numerous restrictions on votiing applied by Republicans in recent years. The point of this has been to reduce voter suppression. I would agree with anyone that it's still necessary to have voter ID. (And in my state, I have to register both my Social Security number and driver's license on the absentee ballot, and then seal and sign it in 2 envelopes in a rather complicated way.) The bill is attached here:

There are some brief notes about voter identification in the bil, but the main purpose of it if to require states to keep polling stations open, to allow all citizens access to voting, and the removal of various voter suppression tactics. I see in the bill no restriction that prohibits a state from requiring some form of reliable ID (unless I missed seeing it, when locating 'voter identification' in the document). People living in poverty, as well as Blacks and Native Americans are among the targets in the bill, to allow them access to voting. But that's just my quick assessment.
