Bill Summary

AN ACT amending sections 28-440, 28-3153, 28-3158, 28-3165 and 28-3166, Arizona Revised Statutes; amending title 28, chapter 8, article 4, Arizona Revised Statutes, by adding section 28-3176; relating to driver and nonoperating identification licenses.

AI Summary

This bill amends Arizona law regarding driver and nonoperating identification licenses, primarily by removing the requirement for applicants to prove their legal presence in the United States for these licenses and instead requiring them to provide a social security number, individual taxpayer identification number, or a foreign government-issued identification document number. It also clarifies that possessing a driver license, instruction permit, or nonoperating identification license is not considered proof of citizenship. The bill removes provisions that previously allowed the department to deny licenses to individuals who had been deported or to implement procedures for verifying legal presence, and it removes the prohibition on accepting a driver license from another state as primary identification if that state does not require proof of lawful presence. Additionally, it introduces a marking of "Federal limitations apply" on licenses issued to individuals who do not provide a social security number.
