HF 599 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Municipal ID for state or federal service acceptance prohibited.

This bill prohibits municipalities from accepting their own municipal IDs as valid identification for state or federal services. A "municipal ID" is defined as a photo ID issued by a city or town that includes basic personal details like name, birthdate, and address. The law specifically states that such IDs cannot be used to prove identity when accessing state services or federally administered programs run by the state. This directly affects residents who might rely on municipal IDs for government interactions and requires state agencies to stop accepting them for identification purposes.
