Temporary exception for certain duplicate driver's license and Minnesota identification card changes following arrest or detention established, and money appropriated.

This bill creates a temporary fee waiver for duplicate driver's licenses and Minnesota identification cards issued to individuals who lost their credentials due to arrest or detention. It requires applicants to submit a declaration confirming their arrest or detention and loss of the credential to qualify for the exemption. Additionally, the bill mandates refunds for duplicate credentials issued between December 1, 2025, and October 1, 2026, funded through a one-time appropriation from the driver and vehicle services operating account. The fee waiver applies to the first duplicate credential issued to each eligible person between October 1, 2026, and February 1, 2029.
