Plain-language change summary

The changes to Senate File 628 include the addition of a provision that allocates funds specifically for the costs of producing and distributing driver’s licenses and nonoperator’s identification cards. This allocation is capped at the revenue generated from the fees for these services. This matters because it ensures that the Department of Transportation has the financial resources to manage the production of important identification documents without using taxpayer dollars beyond the fees collected.
