This bill amends existing laws regarding the sharing of driver's license data by the Department of Administration in Alaska. It specifies that the department may not convey, distribute, or communicate any data not required for compliance with the REAL ID Act of 2005 when working with entities outside the department. The bill removes the reference to the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators and clarifies that the department may only share data with private entities to carry out specific provisions related to driver's license data.

Additionally, the bill introduces a new subsection that allows the department to provide information to nonprofit organizations or governmental or tribal entities approved by the United States Social Security Administration for the purpose of facilitating driver's license data verification. This new provision aims to enhance the verification process while ensuring compliance with federal requirements. The bill is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
