AI Summary
This bill prohibits the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC) from using certain documents as proof of an applicant's identity when applying for various types of driver's licenses or identification cards, including standard basic driver's licenses, identification cards, motorcycle licenses, learner's permits, examination permits, probationary driver's licenses, and commercial driver licenses. Specifically, the MVC will no longer be allowed to accept documents issued by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security or U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) that relate to an individual's removal or deportation from the United States. This includes documents like orders for release on recognizance or orders of supervision, which are typically issued during immigration proceedings. The bill aims to clarify what constitutes acceptable identification for these official documents issued by the state.
