Summary

Requiring citizenship status be listed on driver's licenses.

This bill lacks a plan for implementation and is actually an attempted re-birth of documentary proof of citizenship laws, which the ACLU challenged successfully and the courts rejected from 2016 to 2020. In practice, 35,000 eligible Kansans were blocked from registering to vote between 2013-2016.
