This bill proposes to amend the 1972 law that provides for official personal identification cards in Michigan. The key provisions are: 1) Beginning October 1, 2022, the Secretary of State must issue personal identification cards to prisoners prior to their release on parole or discharge, to the extent possible. 2) The bill outlines the process for the Secretary of State to deliver or mail the identification cards to the Department of Corrections for distribution to prisoners. 3) The bill maintains existing requirements for personal identification card applications, including providing documents to verify identity and citizenship status. It also includes provisions related to Social Security numbers, communication impediment designations, and security features for the cards. 4) The bill specifies that this amendatory act will not take effect unless certain other related bills are also enacted into law.
