According to the article the sort of voter fraud this would prevent isn’t much of an issue at all.
The solution is to auto-enroll citizens. The government can easily check my citizenship if they wanted to. They can send a ID letter stating take this to the voting booth if you don’t have an ID, but this bill is not going to get passed because the main intent is not to prevent fraud.
I wonder if that would cause concern over how secure the mail is. I guess you could put in some additional safeguards on this, where you fill out a web form if you want to get such temporary ID so it’d be a lot harder to use those mailed IDs to cause widespread issues since not every needs it and they’d already know how many have ordered them and so on. But like said, lot of effort to solve, at least of now, a barely existing issue.
