Bill Summary
AN ACT relating to identification cards; authorizing the renewal of identification cards by residents of nursing care facilities and assisted living facilities without appearing in person as specified; specifying limitations on the renewal of identification cards; requiring rulemaking; and providing for effective dates.
AI Summary
This bill allows residents of nursing care facilities and assisted living facilities to renew their identification cards without having to appear in person, provided they submit a notarized attestation from the facility's administrator or manager confirming their residency, any necessary documentation for changes to their information, and surrender their old card. However, this renewal option has limitations: a person cannot use it more than twice in the last sixteen years unless their most recent photograph on file with the department of transportation is less than sixteen years old, and it cannot be used if the person is changing any personal identifying information on the card. The bill also mandates that the Wyoming Department of Transportation create rules to implement these changes, with most of the act taking effect immediately upon becoming law, while the specific provisions for care facility residents' renewals will be effective on July 1, 2026.
