I also suggest you watch the video produced by Carolina Journal about Tuesday’s public hearing on the “Restore Confidence in Government” bill.

Please be sure to share this “Call to Action” from the North Carolina Senate Republican Senate Caucus with your organization:

“Over 2,500 people signed the petition supporting H351, the Restore Confidence in Government bill, which includes voter ID and other election law reforms.

Republican lawmakers in the NC Senate and House understand that the vast majority of North Carolinians , 84 percent, according to a recent poll, favor voter ID. The overwhelming response to the Voter ID Petition demonstrates where the people of North Carolina stand on this issue.

But this debate is far from over.

There are four crucial ways you can stay involved and help Republicans and conservative-leaning Democrats pass this important legislation:

Write a letter to the editor supporting voter ID. (Click here for a list of NC newspapers.)

Submit a public comment to the House Elections Committee.

Call local talk radio stations to voice your opinion and spur others to act.

Donate to the NC Republican Senate Caucus. Your contributions help us spread the word about voter ID, explain the facts and what's at stake, and push back against bogus arguments from liberal special interest groups.

Thank you for standing up and speaking out! With your support, voter ID will pass the NC House and then the NC Senate with overwhelming bipartisan support.”
