A BILL FOR AN ACT
relating to electronically-stored identification.
BE IT
ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:
SECTION 1. The legislature finds that the use of electronically-stored driver's licenses and identification cards is expanding. The states of Arizona, Connecticut, Georgia, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, Oklahoma, and Utah all either support the use of electronically-stored identification or are in the process of enacting legislation to support that use. Additionally, users of electronically-stored identification in those states will be able to present electronically-stored identification at Transportation Security Administration checkpoints in participating airports. The legislature further finds that electronically-stored identification provides a secure and safe alternative to carrying and presenting a physical driver's license or identification card.
The purpose of this Act is to authorize electronically-stored driver's licenses and identification cards to be stored and presented through an approved electronic identification storage service.
SECTION 2. Chapter 286, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended by adding a new section to be appropriately designated and to read as follows:
"§286- Electronically-stored
identification. (a) An
electronically-stored driver's license or identification card shall be accepted
in any situation in which presentation of a driver's license or identification card
is required.
(b) The
director shall designate the electronic identification storage services that may
be used pursuant to subsection (a). The director
may procure and designate commercially available electronic identification storage
services or electronic identification storage services provided by the State; provided
that no electronic identification storage services shall be procured or designated
by the director without a determination that the electronic identification storage
services meets minimum standards of security, safety, and privacy as determined
by the director.
(c) The
department shall adopt rules in accordance with chapter 91 to implement this section.
(d) For
the purposes of this section:
"Electronic identification storage services"
means a software application capable of securely storing and displaying an electronic
image of an existing driver's license or identification card.
"Electronically-stored driver's license or
identification card" means an electronic image of an existing driver's license
or identification card, as those terms are defined in section 286-2, stored in an
electronic identification storage service."
SECTION 3. New statutory material is underscored.
SECTION 4. This Act shall take effect upon its approval.
