Tennessee residents Lee and Phyllis Campbell recently found themselves at a local DMV to obtain a free voter ID for Phyllis. After requesting one, the DMV worker sighed and said it was “too much paperwork” and they should just pay to have her license renewed with a photo. While they were eventually able to get a free ID, the process was so arduous and painstaking, that they were asked to come to D.C. to testify at a congressional hearing about new voting laws and whether or not they erected barriers to voters.
