Kansas Senate weighs citizenship proof in voter plan
Kansas Senate leaders plan close scrutiny of Kris Kobach's Secure and Fair Elections Act as the House passes the bill 838-36. The measure would require first time voters to prove citizenship, mandate photo IDs, tighten election crime penalties, and expand mail ballot security while giving the secretary of state power to prosecute fraud in state courts. The Senate Ethics and Elections Committee will hold a briefing on Thursday with hearings set soon.
