	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 60, as amended, Alejo. Driver's licenses: eligibility: required
documentation.
   (1) Existing law requires the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV)
to require an applicant for an original driver's license or
identification card to submit satisfactory proof that the applicant's
presence in the United States is authorized under federal law.
Existing law prohibits the department from issuing an original driver'
s license or identification card to a person who does not submit
satisfactory proof that his or her presence in the United States is
authorized under federal law. Existing law makes it a misdemeanor for
a person to knowingly assist in obtaining a driver's license or
identification card for a person whose presence in the United States
is not authorized under federal law.
   This bill would delete these provisions, and would make other
technical and conforming changes. The bill would instead authorize an
applicant for a driver's license who is not eligible for a social
security account number, but who provides proof of identity, as
specified, to receive an original driver's license if he or she meets
all other qualifications for licensure.  The bill would provide
that these changes will become operative on January 1, 2015. 
   (2) Existing law requires each form prescribed by the DMV for use
by an applicant for the issuance or renewal of a driver's license or
identification card to contain a section for the applicant's social
security  account  number. Existing law prohibits the
inclusion of an applicant's social security  account  number
on a driver's license, identification card, registration,
certificate of title, or other document issued by the DMV or the
display of an applicant's social security  account  number
on the driver's license.
   This bill would additionally provide that the section of the form
for the applicant's social security  account  number may
also be used for a number associated with a document that the DMV
finds clearly establishes the identity of the applicant. The bill
would additionally prohibit the inclusion or the displaying of the
applicant's individual taxpayer identification number or other number
associated with the identity document.  The bill would provide
that these changes will become operative on January 1, 2015. 
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.
State-mandated local program: no.
