Shaheen Statement on Governor Sununu Signing Harmful New Hampshire Voter ID Law

"By signing this bill into law, Governor Sununu and New Hampshire Republicans are actively making it more difficult for Granite Staters to register to vote to make their voices heard in our elections and our democracy. They're inventing a problem in search of a crisis that does not exist in our state. Under current law, non-citizens, including legal permanent residents, already are prohibited from voting in federal elections and no state currently allows non-citizens to vote in statewide elections. Discouraging participation in our democracy is as anti-American as it can get. As Governor, I twice vetoed voter identification legislation. While I'm relieved this won't impact this year's election, I will keep working to stop this from taking effect and limiting Granite Staters' right to vote."
