The Committee on Transportation proposes the following amendment (SR-872.KM0002S):

Amend the bill, as and if amended, by striking all after the enacting words and inserting:

SECTION 1. Section 56-1-140(A) of the S.C. Code is amended to read:

 (A) Upon payment of a fee of twenty-five dollars for a license that is valid for eight years, the department shall issue to every qualified applicant a driver's license as applied for by law. The license must bear on it a distinguishing number assigned to the licensee, the full name, date of birth, residence address, a brief description and unobstructed photograph of the licensee's face, any marking otherwise required or in compliance with law, and a facsimile of the signature of the licensee. No license is valid until it has been so signed by the licensee. Qualified applicants who are not citizens of the United States must have "Limited Term" conspicuously included on the driver's licenses or identification cards issued to them. The license authorizes the licensee to operate only those classifications of vehicles as indicated on the license.

SECTION 2. Section 7-13-710(A) of the S.C. Code is amended to read:

 (A) When a person presents himself to vote, he shall produce a valid and current:
  (1) South Carolina driver's license that does not contain the words "Limited Term"; or
  (2) other form of identification containing a photograph issued by the Department of Motor Vehicles that does not contain the words "Limited Term"; or
  (3) passport; or
  (4) military identification containing a photograph issued by the federal government; or
  (5) South Carolina voter registration card containing a photograph of the voter pursuant to Section 7-5-675.

SECTION 3. Chapter 1, Title 56 of the S.C. Code is amended by adding:

 Section 56-1-235. Whenever any person becomes a citizen of the United States after previously providing the Department of Motor Vehicles with documentation that he was not a citizen of the United States, such person shall notify the Department of Motor Vehicles of the change and provide documentation substantiating his citizenship status. The Department of Motor Vehicles must provide one driver's license or identification card at no charge reflecting the applicable change. Subsequent modified cards are at the expense of the person for the same fee provided in Section 56-1-200 or Section 56-1-3350.
