SB1108,,3 Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill provides that an applicant for a REAL ID noncompliant driver’s license or identification card is not required to provide documentary proof that the applicant is a U.S. citizen or is otherwise lawfully present in the United States.

Under 2007 Wisconsin Act 20, certain provisions specified in the federal REAL ID Act of 2005 (REAL ID) were incorporated into state law, and these provisions became effective on January 1, 2013. Among these provisions was the requirement that the Department of Transportation follow certain procedures in processing applications for driver’s licenses and identification cards. However, under 2011 Wisconsin Acts 23 and 32, DOT may process applications for driver’s licenses and identification cards in a manner other than that required by REAL ID if the driver’s licenses and identification cards are marked to indicate that they are not REAL ID compliant and DOT processes the applications in compliance with DOT practices and procedures applicable immediately prior to the implementation of REAL ID.

Under current law, an applicant for a driver’s license or identification card, regardless of whether it is REAL ID compliant or REAL ID noncompliant, must provide to DOT 1) an identification document that includes either the applicant’s photograph or both the applicant’s full legal name and date of birth; 2) documentation, which may be the same as item 1, above, showing the applicant’s date of birth; 3) proof of the applicant’s social security number or verification that the applicant is not eligible for a social security number; 4) documentation showing the applicant’s name and address of principal residence; and 5) documentary proof that the applicant is a U.S. citizen or is otherwise lawfully present in the United States. However, in processing an application for a REAL ID noncompliant driver’s license or identification card (noncompliant REAL ID), DOT is not required to meet the standards for document retention and verification that are imposed for REAL ID compliant products.

Under the bill, an applicant for a noncompliant REAL ID is not required to provide documentary proof that the applicant is a U.S. citizen or is otherwise lawfully present in the United States. Also, an applicant may, in lieu of item 1 above, provide an individual taxpayer identification number, a foreign passport, or any other documentation deemed acceptable to DOT and, in lieu of items 2 and 4 above, provide documentation deemed acceptable to DOT. If the applicant does not have a social security number, the applicant is required to provide verification only that he or she does not have one, rather than verification that he or she is not eligible for one. In processing an application for, and issuing or renewing, a noncompliant REAL ID, DOT may not include any question or require any proof or documentation as to whether the applicant is a U.S. citizen or is otherwise lawfully present in the United States. The bill does not change any current law requirements related to driver qualifications such as minimum age or successful completion of knowledge and driving skills tests.

Under current law, most driver’s licenses issued by DOT are issued for an initial two-year period and must be renewed every eight years thereafter. In general, an applicant for renewal of a driver’s license must pass an eyesight test and have his or her photograph taken with each renewal. Most identification cards issued by DOT are issued for an initial period of eight years and are renewable for eight-year periods thereafter, and applicants, generally, must have their photograph taken with each renewal.

Under the bill, an applicant for a noncompliant REAL ID who does not provide a social security number is issued a noncompliant REAL ID that has a four-year renewal period rather than an eight-year renewal period and that displays, on its face, the following words: “Not valid for voting purposes. Not evidence of citizenship or immigration status.” With each renewal, DOT has discretion whether or not to take a new photograph and, for a driver’s license, give an eyesight test. However, DOT must take a new photograph and, for a driver’s license, give an eyesight test at least once every eight years.

With limited exceptions, DOT may not disclose social security numbers obtained from driver’s license or identification card applicants. This bill prohibits DOT from disclosing the fact that an applicant has verified to DOT that the applicant does not have a social security number, except that DOT may disclose this information to the Elections Commission.

The bill also prohibits discrimination on the basis of a person’s status as a holder or a nonholder of a noncompliant REAL ID, adding this license status as a prohibited basis for discrimination in employment, housing, and the equal enjoyment of a public place of accommodation or amusement.

For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.

Employers, labor organizations, employment agencies, and licensing agencies that deny employment opportunities and discriminate in employment against properly qualified individuals solely because of their age, race, creed, color, disability, marital status, sex, national origin, ancestry, sexual orientation, arrest record, conviction record, military service, status as a holder or nonholder of a license under s. 343.03 (3r), use or nonuse of lawful products off the employer’s premises during nonworking hours, or declining to attend a meeting or to participate in any communication about religious matters or political matters, deprive those individuals of the earnings that are necessary to maintain a just and decent standard of living.

It is the intent of the legislature in promulgating this subchapter to encourage employers to evaluate an employee or applicant for employment based upon the individual qualifications of the employee or applicant rather than upon a particular class to which the individual may belong.

SB1108,18 Section 18. 111.31 (3) of the statutes is amended to read:

SB1108,,40 111.31 (3) In the interpretation and application of this subchapter, and otherwise, it is declared to be the public policy of the state to encourage and foster to the fullest extent practicable the employment of all properly qualified individuals regardless of age, race, creed, color, disability, marital status, sex, national origin, ancestry, sexual orientation, arrest record, conviction record, military service, status as a holder or nonholder of a license under s. 343.03 (3r), use or nonuse of lawful products off the employer’s premises during nonworking hours, or declining to attend a meeting or to participate in any communication about religious matters or political matters.

No discriminations may be exercised in the recruitment, application, or hiring process against or in favor of any person because of the person’s political or religious opinions or affiliations or because of age, sex, disability, race, color, sexual orientation, national origin, or ancestry, or status as a holder or nonholder of a license under s. 343.03 (3r) except as otherwise provided.
