Bill > SF2279

This bill prohibits municipal identification cards (municipal IDs) from being used as valid proof of identification for obtaining state or federal services in Minnesota. The bill defines a municipal ID as a photographic identification card issued by a city to its residents, which includes details like name, date of birth, and residential address. To be considered a resident and eligible for a municipal ID, a person must have lived within the city's boundaries for at least 30 continuous days and provide documentation proving their identity and residency. Specifically, the legislation prevents municipal IDs from being accepted as valid identification for accessing any services provided by the state or through federal programs administered by the state or its political subdivisions. The bill would take effect the day after it is enacted, effectively limiting the utility of municipal IDs for government service access across Minnesota.
