“When you see that thin atmosphere and realize we’re filling it with greenhouse gases and pollutants ...when you see these things, you realize, ‘What are we doing?’” he said in 2024. “If we don’t take care of this planet, there is nowhere else to go.”
But not all Democrats were on board, with five voting against it when it passed the Senate.“I recognize what you’re attempting to do, to stave off something worse,” said Democratic Sen. Dina Neal. But she said she was “wrestling with the philosophical issue with voter ID.”
“I’m not in the space where I am openly willing to disenfranchise a population who may not even understand this law as written.”If Lombardo signs the bill, Nevada will join 36 other states that either require or requestwhen voting in person, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. Not all states require photo ID, though. Some accept documents such as a bank statement, and some allow voters without ID to vote after signing an affidavit. A few states allow poll workers to vouch for voters without an ID.
