"A bill advancing in the Mississippi Legislature would expand early voting and require voters to show identification at the polls.
The bill passed the House Elections Committee [sic] on Tuesday and is expected to come up for a vote of the full House by next week.
A separate voter ID bill passed the Mississippi Senate in January. The two chambers eventually could try to write a compromise bill. Or discussions about voter ID could fail, as they have done for more than a decade."

Commenting is available for this article.
Nota bene: I could not locate the bill text on the Mississippi Legislature website.
