Photo ID required to register to vote and to vote, voter ID card created, provisional ballots established, reports required, and money appropriated.
HF 1513 requires Minnesota voters to present a photo ID when registering to vote and when casting a ballot. It creates a new state-issued voter ID card, which can be obtained without fees for vital records needed to verify identity (per Section 3.1-3.3). The bill establishes provisional ballots for voters who lack ID but provide required documentation, and mandates annual reports on ID card usage. These changes take effect June 1, 2026, and apply to all voters participating in Minnesota elections.
