This bill outlines specific documentation requirements for application, such as a photo ID, birth certificate, or other identity documents, alongside personal details like full legal name and residence address. It introduces automatic voter registration, accepts Department of Corrections ID cards for identity verification, and permits electronic access to records for the secretary of state. The bill restricts ID card issuance to individuals without a driver's license, except in cases of suspension or revocation, and includes measures for Social Security number protection, requirements for applicants without a Social Security number, and security features to prevent ID fraud.
