| ||||||
15 | Section 10. Acceptance of consular identification | ||||||
16 | document. | ||||||
17 | (a) When requiring members of the public to provide | ||||||
18 | identification, each State agency and officer and unit of local | ||||||
19 | government shall accept a consular identification document as | ||||||
20 | valid identification of a person. | ||||||
21 | (b) A consular identification document shall be accepted | ||||||
22 | for purposes of identification only
and does not convey an | ||||||
23 | independent right to receive benefits of any type. | ||||||
24 | (c) A consular identification document may not be accepted | ||||||
25 | as identification for obtaining a driver's license or | ||||||
26 | registering to vote. | ||||||
27 | (d) A consular identification document does not establish | ||||||
28 | or indicate lawful U.S. immigration status and may not be | ||||||
29 | viewed as valid for that purpose, nor does a consular | ||||||
30 | identification document establish a foreign national's right | ||||||
31 | to be in the United States or remain in the United States.
| ||||||
32 | (e) The requirements of subsection (a) do not apply if: | ||||||
33 | (1) a federal law, regulation, or directive or a |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | federal court decision requires a State agency or officer | ||||||
2 | or a unit of local government to obtain different | ||||||
3 | identification; | ||||||
4 | (2) a federal law, regulation, or directive preempts | ||||||
5 | state regulation of identification requirements; or | ||||||
6 | (3) a State agency or officer or a unit of local | ||||||
7 | government would be unable to comply with a condition | ||||||
8 | imposed by a funding source which would cause the State | ||||||
9 | agency or officer or unit of local government to lose funds | ||||||
10 | from that source.
| ||||||
11 | (f) Nothing in subsection (a) shall be construed to | ||||||
12 | prohibit a State agency or officer or a unit of local | ||||||
13 | government from: | ||||||
14 | (1) requiring additional information from persons in | ||||||
15 | order to verify a current address or other facts that would | ||||||
16 | enable the State agency or officer or unit of local | ||||||
17 | government to fulfill its responsibilities, except that | ||||||
18 | this paragraph (1) does not permit a State agency or | ||||||
19 | officer or a unit of local government to require additional | ||||||
20 | information solely in order to establish identification of | ||||||
21 | the person when the consular identification document is the | ||||||
22 | form of identification presented; | ||||||
23 | (2) requiring fingerprints for identification purposes | ||||||
24 | under circumstances where the State agency or officer or | ||||||
25 | unit of local government also requires fingerprints from | ||||||
26 | persons who have a driver's license or Illinois | ||||||
27 | Identification Card; or | ||||||
28 | (3) requiring additional evidence of identification if
| ||||||
29 | the State agency or officer or unit of local government | ||||||
30 | reasonably believes that: (A) the consular identification | ||||||
31 | document is forged, fraudulent,
or altered; or (B) the | ||||||
32 | holder
does not appear to be the same person on the | ||||||
33 | consular identification document. |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | Section 15. Privacy and disclosure
limitations. Use by a | ||||||
2 | State agency or officer or a unit of local government of | ||||||
3 | information collected from, or appearing on, a consular | ||||||
4 | identification document is subject to the same privacy and | ||||||
5 | disclosure
limitations that apply to the Illinois | ||||||
