Existing law requires the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation and the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to ensure that any eligible inmate, as defined, released from state prison has a valid identification card. Existing law authorizes the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation and the DMV to provide a renewed driver's license in lieu of an identification card if the inmate meets specified criteria. Existing law defines "eligible inmate," in part, as a person who has previously held a California driver's license or identification card, who has a usable photo on file with the Department of Motor Vehicles, and who meets certain requirements, including that they have provided, and the Department of Motor Vehicles has verified, specified information, such as the inmate's true full name. Existing law requires the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, to the extent administratively feasible and within available resources, to facilitate the process between an eligible inmate and the agencies holding documentation required for the issuance of an identification card, as specified. This bill would authorize the Sheriff's Department of the County of San Diego and the DMV to implement a pilot program based on the above-described provisions to provide eligible incarcerated persons, as defined, a valid identification card or driver's license when they are released from a County of San Diego detention facility. The bill would require the pilot program to be 5 years long. The bill would require the Sheriff's Department of the County of San Diego, if it implements the pilot program, to submit a report to the Legislature no later than April 1, 2028, including information on the number of identification cards issued and driver's licenses renewed, among other things.
