What’s in it

This bill requires the department of transportation (DOT) to issue driver’s licenses (DL) and nonoperator’s identification cards (ID cards) that do not comply with federal REAL ID program standards if an applicant requests a noncompliant DL or ID card. The bill limits the extent to which the DOT is able to use and share information provided by an applicant for a noncompliant DL or ID card. The bill requires the DOT to notify applicants for a DL or ID card that the applicant may be issued a federally noncompliant DL or ID card.

Read the full explanation

Employees of the DOT must receive annual training on the provisions of the bill and are required to face disciplinary action for willful violations. If certain changes occur relating to the administration of federal REAL IDs, the bill requires the DOT to immediately rescind all compliance measures with the REAL ID program and cease issuing REAL ID-compliant identification.
