Introduced by: David L. Bulova | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Satisfactory evidence of identity; United States Passport Book and United States Passport Card. Clarifies that both a United States Passport Book and a United States Passport Card are acceptable forms of identification of an individual for notarization. Current law states that a United States Passport is acceptable, but does not specifically include both as acceptable forms of identification. A United States Passport Card is not valid for travel by international air, but does include on it a photograph of the holder. Finally, the bill clarifies that all acceptable forms of identification must be unexpired. The bill contains a technical amendment.
