Reported without amendment
With the recommendation that the substitute (H-3) be adopted and that the bill then pass.
Substitute offered
To replace the previous version of the bill with one that narrows it to just prohibiting the Secretary of State office from issuing a drivers license to a person who it determines is in the U.S. illegally, and requiring certain documents be presented to show an applicant is a citizen or is in the U.S. legally.
The substitute passed by voice vote
Amendment offered
by
To clarify that the definition of state "resident" means someone who is resident in this state and is legally present in the U.S. Note: In late 2007 there was confusion regarding a Michigan Attorney General opinion that was interpreted by the Secretary of State office as preventing it from issuing driver’s licenses to temporary residents. The Attorney General said that was not correct. This amendment would make the statute clear.

To prohibit the Secretary of State office from issuing a drivers license to a person who it determines is in the U.S. illegally, and require certain documents be presented an applicant is a citizen or is in the U.S. legally. Unlike Senate Bills 962 and 963 the bill does not contain all the provisions of the federal REAL ID Act, including real-time confirmation of social security numbers, bar codes on the drivers license with certain personal identification items, and more. It does establish that a license issued to a resident alien expires on the day the person's legal status ends.
