Voter ID Required If Vaccine Passports Used

This bill says that if your state or local government requires proof of COVID-19 vaccination (like a vaccine passport) for certain activities, then that state or local government must also require voters to show identification when voting in federal elections. This rule would apply starting January 1, 2022, as long as the vaccine passport requirement is in place.
