Bill > HB213

This bill modifies Alaska's regulations regarding data sharing by the Department of Administration, specifically concerning driver's license information. The bill removes a previous restriction that prevented the department from sharing data with the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators and expands the department's ability to share data with certain entities. Specifically, the bill allows the department to convey driver's license data to a private entity for purposes related to Social Security Administration verification. The legislation clarifies that the department can share only the data required for compliance with the REAL ID Act of 2005 and adds a new provision requiring the department to furnish information to entities approved by the United States Social Security Administration for driver's license data verification purposes. The bill aims to streamline data sharing processes while maintaining restrictions on unnecessary data transmission, ultimately facilitating more efficient verification of driver's license information for federal purposes. The act will take effect immediately upon passage.
