It's always funny when people just look 2 inches onto the surface of an issue and go, "Hmm, I don't see the problem!"
There is a reason it's being pushed so hard by the GOP. Do you really think they would fight so hard for it if it would cause black voter ranks to swell? Now they have no incentive to guarantee that all citizens have the same easy access to DMV and to obtain a driver's license. You'll see that more DMVs are in affluent white suburbs and with lower wait times. For many wage workers, sitting 4 hours in the line for the DMV comes straight out of their pocketbook and they're incentivized to stay home, or not put up the effort. The only way this could not be construed as racist is if the very same law guaranteed all state citizens had equal access to the DMV and ensured there were no undue hardships to get a license, register to vote, or other unequal affects of its passing.
