STAND. COM. REP. NO. 3159

Honolulu, Hawaii

RE: S.B. No. 2260

Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi

President of the Senate

Thirtieth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2020

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Judiciary, to which was referred S.B. No. 2260 entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO CIVIL IDENTIFICATION CARDS,"

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose and intent of this measure is to repeal the minimum age for minors to obtain a civil identification card that is commonly referred to as a state identification card.

Your Committee received comments on this measure from one individual.

Your Committee finds that under existing law, a minor may obtain a civil identification card at age ten. Your Committee finds that there is no public purpose served by the minimum age requirement for obtaining a civil identification card. This measure therefore removes the age requirement to allow minors of any age to obtain a state identification card.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Judiciary that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 2260 and recommends that it pass Third Reading.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Judiciary,
