AI Summary

This bill makes several changes to Oklahoma's driver licensing laws: It removes certain limitations, exceptions, and requirements related to issuing driver's licenses to non-citizens. It requires Service Oklahoma to transmit identifying information for applicants or licensees who provide an individual tax identification number (ITIN) to the Secretary of the State Election Board, who will then notify county election boards of any matches with registered voters. These applicants or licensees will be prohibited from receiving voter registration services. The bill also creates a new "N.R." notation on licenses for those providing an ITIN to indicate their non-resident status. Additionally, the bill increases the fees for REAL ID noncompliant licenses and creates a $50 additional fee for applicants or licensees providing an ITIN. The bill takes effect on November 1, 2023.
