The resolution proposes to amend the Ohio Constitution by adding Section 5 to Article V, which would require voters to present photo identification when voting in person at polling places or designated voting locations. This requirement aims to enhance the integrity of the voting process. However, the resolution also allows for alternative methods of identity verification for individuals who have a sincere religious objection to being photographed. Additionally, voters would need to provide photo identification or, if permitted by law, a signature along with another unique identifier when voting by other methods.

The proposed photo identification must be a valid document issued by a state or federal agency, such as an Ohio driver's license, a U.S. passport, or military identification, and must include the voter's name and photograph. The resolution outlines what constitutes a "unique identifier" and specifies that the new requirements would take effect immediately upon approval by a majority of voters in the general election scheduled for November 3, 2026.
