Senate Bill No. 964 introduces new regulations regarding personal identification certificates and driver's licenses issued to individuals who are not citizens of the United States. The bill mandates that these documents must include specific designations to clearly differentiate them from those issued to citizens. For personal identification certificates, the information must be oriented to distinguish it clearly, and the phrase "NOT ELIGIBLE TO VOTE" must be displayed prominently on the front. Similarly, for driver's licenses, the information must be oriented vertically, and the same phrase must be included in a font size matching the driver's license number.

The provisions of this bill will apply only to personal identification certificates and driver's licenses that are issued or renewed on or after the effective date of September 1, 2025. Licenses or certificates issued or renewed prior to this date will continue to be governed by the existing laws in effect at that time. This legislation aims to enhance clarity and prevent potential misuse of identification documents by non-citizens in voting contexts.
