This bill proposes several updates to current statutes regarding licensing requirements in Arizona. It repeals the existing section 41-1080 and introduces new provisions that prohibit agencies from requiring documentation of citizenship or alien status for license applicants. Additionally, if an agency requires a social security number, it must accept a federal tax identification number as an alternative. The bill also clarifies definitions related to "agency" and "license," ensuring that these terms encompass various state and local entities that issue licenses for business operations or services.

Furthermore, the bill modifies existing requirements for license applicants by removing the need to meet the now-repealed section 41-1080. It retains the age requirement of at least eighteen years and the stipulation that applicants must not have engaged in conduct warranting disciplinary action under section 32-741. Overall, the proposed changes aim to streamline the licensing process and make it more accessible by eliminating barriers related to citizenship documentation.
