Force the State of Alabama to keep DMV offices open in all counties.

The state of Alabama has closed down many of its DMV offices where people register to vote and get drivers licenses. This has left 29 counties without an office, many of which are rural and low income. Alabama also has a voter I.D. law. Closing these offices has put a huge burden on lower-income people when it comes to obtaining a government-issued I.D. for voting. Maintaining at least one office in these counties would help alleviate this burden.

Why is this important?

I am a native of Alabama and just moved from the state after a lifetime of residency. I think this move is targeted at low-income people, especially in regards to the ability to vote. The ability to obtain a government-issued I.D. is very important for many reasons, and the state should take other measures to save money.
