The
bill
requires
that
the
office
of
driver
services
of
the
3
department
of
transportation
transmit
to
the
state
registrar
of
4
voters
(the

information

for,

of,
each
person
submitting
7
an
application
for
a
driver’s
license
or
nonoperator’s
8
identification
card,
or
any
renewal
application.
Current
Code
9
section
321.182
requires
that
an
application
for
a
license
10
or
card
include
an
applicant’s
full
name,
signature,
current
11
mailing
address,
current
residential
address,

Under

of
the
state

of

14
an
applicant
for
a
license
or
card
is
required
to
provide
proof
15
of
lawful
status
in
the
United
States.
Also
under
current
16
administrative
rules,
a
person’s
signature
for
a
driver’s
17
license
or
nonoperator’s
identification
card
application
is
18
required
to
be
captured
electronically.
Under
current
law,
19
a
county
treasurer’s
office
participating
in
county
issuance
20
of
driver’s
licenses
is
required
to
participate
in
voter
21
registration
to
the
same
extent
as
a
license
facility
of
the
22
state
department
of
transportation.
23
The
bill
requires
the
state
registrar
of
voters
to
transmit
24
the
electronic
records
and
electronic
signatures
to
the
county
25
commissioner
of
registration
of
the
county
where
the
person
26
resides.
The
bill
requires
that
the
county
commissioner
review
27
the
electronic
record
and
any
other
relevant
information
to
28
determine
if
a
person
is
an
eligible
elector.
If
the
county
29
commissioner
determines
a
person
to
be
an
eligible
elector
30
and
the
person
is
not
registered
to
vote
in
the
county,
the
31
county
commissioner
is
required
to
notify
the
person
of
the
32
separate
processes
to
decline
to
register
to
vote
or
to
declare
33
a
political
party
affiliation.
If
a
notified
person
fails
to
34
decline
voter
registration
within
21
days
after

county

commissioner
issued
the
notification,
the
bill
provides
that
1
the
electronic
record
and
electronic
signature
shall
constitute
2
a
completed
voter
registration
form
for
that
person
and
the
3
bill
requires
the
county
commissioner
to
register
the
person
to
4
vote
in
that
county
and
send
the
person
an
acknowledgment
as
5
required
by
current
law.
6
The
bill
prohibits
a
county
commissioner
from
adding
a
7
person’s
name
to
a
voter
registration
list
until
at
least
21
8
days
after
the
commissioner
has
issued
notification
to
the
9
person.
The
bill
requires
that
a
county
commissioner
send
an
10
acknowledgment
of
registration
within
seven
business
days
of
11
registering
a
person
under
the
bill.
The
bill
also
provides
12
that
the
electronic
record
and
electronic
signature
of
a
person
13
who
does
not
qualify
as
an
eligible
elector
does
not
constitute
14
a
completed
voter
registration
form.
Under
the
bill,
such
a
15
person
submitting
an
application
for
a
license
or
card
will
not
16
be
subject
to
charges
for
voter
registration
fraud
under
Code
17
section
39A.2
for
submitting
such
an
application.
18
The
bill
also
grants
the
state
voter
registration
commission
19
the
authority
to
adopt
rules
to
administer
and
interpret
the
20
provisions
of
the
bill
relating
to
voter
registration
at
motor
21
vehicle
driver’s
license
stations.
If
interpretive
rulemaking
22
authority
is
clearly
vested
in
the
discretion
of
an
agency
by
23
statute,
the
applicable
judicial
standard
of
review
is
whether
24
the
rules
constitute
an
irrational,
illogical,
or
wholly
25
unjustifiable
interpretation
of
law
by
the
agency
(Code
section
26
17A.19(10)(l)).
If
interpretive
rulemaking
authority
is
not
27
clearly
vested
in
the
discretion
of
an
agency,
the
applicable
28
judicial
standard
of
review
is
whether
the
rules
constitute
an
29
erroneous
interpretation
of
law
(Code
section
17A.19(10)(c)).
30
The
bill
makes
changes
to
current
law
related
to
address
31
confidentiality
program
participants
under
Code
chapter
32
9E
by
requiring
the
state
registrar
to
adopt
rules
for
33
administration
of
registration
for
those
participants.
The
34
bill
maintains
current
law
to
allow
for
submission
of
a
paper

voter
registration
form
through
driver’s
license
offices.
The
1
bill
specifies
that
a
requirement
that
separate
registration
2
forms
be
signed
by
each
individual
registrant
only
applies
to
3
paper
registration
forms.
Under
the
bill,
driver’s
license
4
offices
are
required
to
transmit
voter
registration
forms
5
to
the
appropriate
county
commissioner
and
to
transmit
all
6
electronic
records
and
electronic
signatures
to
the
state
7
registrar
of
voters.
8
Under
current
law,
the
state
registrar
of
voters
is
9
required
to
establish
rules
regulating
transmission
of
voter
10
registration
forms
from
driver’s
license
stations
and
voter
11
registration
agencies.
Under
the
bill,
such
rules
are
required
12
to
be
established
by
the
state
commission.
13
The
bill
also
allows
for
automatic
voter
registration
14
to
be
completed
based
upon
information
received
from
15
voter
registration
agencies,
including,
under
the
bill,
16
the
department
of
education
and
other
state
offices
that
17
collect
personal
information
sufficient
to
complete
a
voter
18
registration
application.
19
The
bill
provides
that
the
state
voter
registration
20
commission,
in
consultation
with
the
department
of
21
transportation
and
voter
registration
agencies,
may
adopt
22
emergency
rules
to
implement
the
provisions
of
the
bill.
23
The
bill
may
include
a
state
mandate
as
defined
in
Code
24
section
25B.3.
The
bill
makes
inapplicable
Code
section
25B.2,
25
subsection
3,
which
would
relieve
a
political
subdivision
from
26
complying
with
a
state
mandate
if
funding
for
the
cost
of
27
the
state
mandate
is
not
provided
or
specified.
Therefore,
28
political
subdivisions
are
required
to
comply
with
any
state
29
mandate
included
in
the
bill.
30
The
bill
takes
effect
upon
enactment.
