An act to amend 2008 PA 23, entitled “An act to authorize the secretary of state to issue enhanced driver licenses and state personal identification cards to United States citizens who reside in Michigan to facilitate travel between the United States and Canada; to establish certain funds and prescribe duties for certain officials; and to prohibit certain conduct and prescribe penalties,” by amending section 4 (MCL 28.304), as amended by 2021 PA 72.
Senate Bills 706 and 799 would amend the Michigan Vehicle Code to do all of the following: • Remove a requirement that the secretary of state (SOS) include in an individual’s driving record whether the individual failed to pay a driver responsibility fee (DRF). • Remove a requirement that the SOS include in the driving record an individual’s conviction for an offense described in former section 319e of the code.1 • Allow the SOS to reinstate the driver’s license of an individual whose privileges were suspended for failure to pay DRFs without requiring them to pay the license reinstatement fee. • Delete all of section 732a of the code, which established DRFs, except for those provisions that relate to the creation and administration of the Fire Protection Fund, and remove references to section 732a in other sections of the code. • Repeal sections 732b and 732d of the code, which pertain to workforce training programs and educational outreach in relation to DRFs. • Amend the Enhanced Driver License and Enhanced Official State Personal Identification Card Act to remove the assessment of DRFs from a list of “licensing sanctions” under the Michigan Vehicle Code that the holder of an enhanced driver license under the act is subject to.
