"The Senate voted to override Beshear's veto of Senate Bill 2, which requires voters to present government-issued photo identification in order to cast a ballot, in addition to Senate Bill 5, requiring a local government council to approve any tax increase proposed by a special taxing district, such as a sewer district or library board.

The photo ID bill was pushed by Republican supporters as a way to prevent in-person voter fraud and build public confidence in the integrity of elections. It goes into effect during the general election this November.

The House followed the Senate's lead and overrode Beshear's veto of SB 2 and SB 5 Tuesday evening."
