This bill amends Title 75 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, specifically regarding the application, issuance, and renewal of driver's licenses and learner's permits. Key changes include the requirement for applications to allow for the submission of a Social Security number or taxpayer identification number, and the introduction of a Pennsylvania REAL ID driver's license for noncitizens who can establish lawful presence in the U.S. The bill also specifies that non-REAL ID licenses will be clearly labeled as "Not for REAL ID Purposes" and outlines the conditions under which the Department of Transportation may issue these licenses.

Additionally, the bill introduces provisions to protect the privacy and confidentiality of applicants for non-REAL ID licenses. It prohibits the use of applicant information for immigration enforcement purposes unless required by a court order or warrant. The bill also restricts the retention of documents provided by applicants and ensures that noncommercial driver's licenses cannot be used as evidence of citizenship or immigration status. Overall, the amendments aim to enhance the licensing process while safeguarding the rights and privacy of applicants.
