Question about voter ID's: AA, POC, and the poor have the hardest times with voter ID

while fighting this batter in courts is obviously necessary, is there no way to set up organizations that fund these ID's?

Are there already such organizations?

Is this some how not legal?

Some states offer free IDs. It's the other documents like birth certificates which pose challenges. LonePirate Dec 2016 #1

Many (all?) states allow you to order birth certificates from their state records office. LonePirate Dec 2016 #3
from the recount effort, which is clearly not going to amount to anything. La Lioness Priyanka Dec 2016 #4

Any program that helps fun voter IDs must also help fund the acquisition of birth certificates and other necessary documents.

The requirements, costs and wait times vary - and the costs can be high (maybe north of $100 for some).

However, obtaining IDs for voters without them is more essential to us than anything else because voting rights are going to be attacked in full force across the country. We need billionaires on our side to pony up some massive funds to help acquire IDs so we can take our country back from those who have stolen it.

it seems like we do have resources we could tap into, even outside of Soros money
