Bill Summary

To ensure benefits through enhanced Selective Service registration

AI Summary

This bill aims to ensure benefits through enhanced Selective Service registration. The key provisions are: 1. Male applicants for a driver's license, learner's permit, or ID card who are between 18 and 26 years old will be automatically registered with the Selective Service System, unless they explicitly opt-out. 2. The Registrar of Motor Vehicles will notify applicants of their duty to register with the Selective Service System and that their application signature constitutes consent for the Registrar to forward their information for registration. 3. Applicants under 18 will be notified that their signature authorizes them to be registered upon turning 18, as required by federal law. 4. Refusal to provide consent for Selective Service registration cannot be grounds for denying driving privileges or other discrimination. 5. Implementation of this bill is contingent on the Registrar receiving sufficient federal funds to cover the initial costs of the necessary computer programming changes.
