HB 1007 prohibits using identification cards issued by schools, universities, or other educational institutions as valid proof of identity for voter registration or voting in Oklahoma. This directly affects voters who previously relied on student IDs to meet Oklahoma's voter ID requirements. The bill amends Section 7-114 of Oklahoma law to explicitly state that educational institution IDs do not satisfy the legal definition of "proof of identity," while maintaining other acceptable forms like driver's licenses or state IDs. The law takes effect November 1, 2025.
