Liberty Initiative Fund pushes Michigan to tighten voter eligibility rules
The Liberty Initiative Fund, led by Paul Jacob, is backing a Michigan ballot drive that would require proof of citizenship to register, photo ID to vote, and regular updates to voter rolls.
Advocates from the Liberty Initiative Fund are focusing on state-level campaigns to limit voting to U.S. citizens. Paul Jacob, a veteran of ballot initiatives, is directing resources toward a Michigan proposal. The measure seeks to add citizenship verification for registration, mandate photo identification at polls, and enforce systematic voter-list maintenance. The group argues that these steps are needed amid concerns about immigration and lax voting statutes.
Why it matters
Changes to voting rules could affect who can cast ballots in future elections.
