After a federal judge rejected a law requiring photo ID for citizens to vote the Georgia state legislature passed a revised version of the bill which takes out the fee requirement but still requires a photo ID to vote. Civil rights groups complained that this law disenfranchises low income and minority groups. The Justice Department must also approve this law because some states have had a history of disenfranchising voters. The Justice Department supported the original version of the bill.
