Relating to the acceptance of and funding for certain forms of identification issued to persons unlawfully present in the United States; creating a criminal offense.
SB 2328 requires Texas to create a database tracking businesses and government entities that issue identification documents (like driver's licenses) to people unlawfully present in the U.S. It makes it a misdemeanor for businesses or government offices to accept such documents for verifying age, identity, or residency, and prohibits using public or private funds to help obtain these documents. The bill declares these documents invalid for identification purposes in Texas, though federal IDs remain unaffected. This directly impacts entities issuing or accepting such documents, with criminal penalties taking effect in March 2026.
