The bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 171.071, subdivision 2, to modify the requirements for photographs on drivers' licenses and identification cards for individuals who have a medical covering due to specific health conditions. It stipulates that if a person has experienced hair loss due to an accident or serious illness, or if they require continuous coverage of the head or scalp, the commissioner must allow for a medically required covering in the photograph.

Additionally, the bill emphasizes that the medically required covering must be of an appropriate size and type to ensure that the holder's identity can be verified without obscuring their face. This change aims to accommodate individuals with medical conditions while maintaining the integrity of identification processes.
