Voter registration information on applications for drivers' licenses and identification cards modified.
HF 886 modifies driver's license and identification card application forms in Minnesota by adding a clear statement about voter eligibility. The bill requires all applicants to see the statement: "Only citizens of the United States are eligible to vote. If you are not a citizen, you are not eligible to vote. Voting if you are not eligible is a felony..." on every application. This affects all Minnesotans applying for a driver's license or ID card, including enhanced REAL ID cards. The change is purely informational, appearing on the application form without altering eligibility requirements for licenses or voting. The bill does not change who can obtain a license or modify voter registration processes.
