WITHDRAWN
Senator Davis of the 22nd offered the following amendment:

Amend the Senate Health and Human Services Committee substitute to SB 292 (LC 21 1745S) by inserting "to provide for identification cards for TANF recipients;" after "records;" on line 8.

By replacing line 152 with the following:

(j) Except as provided in subsection (k) of this Code section, each applicant for TANF benefits shall be provided by the department with a state identification card. The department shall provide for at least one location within each county for the submission of applications for such cards. No fee shall be charged or collected for the application for or issuance of an identification card.

(k) No person shall be eligible for a state identification card if such person has a valid unexpired driver's license or identification card issued under Code Section 40-5-100. The applications collected by the department shall satisfy all requirements of the Department of Driver Services for the issuance of state identification cards pursuant to Code Section 40-5-100. Such applications shall be forwarded to the Department of Driver Services and, upon approval, the Department of Driver Services shall issue the identification cards and provide the cards to the department for distribution to the applicants.

(l) The department shall adopt rules to implement this Code section."
