CHAIRMAN TORGERSON announced SB 19 to be up for consideration.                                                                  
                                                                                                                                
SENATOR  TAYLOR  moved  to adopt  CSSB  19 22-GS1002/C  Lauterbach.                                                             
There were no objections and it was so ordered.                                                                                 
                                                                                                                                
MS. BARBARA  MIKLOS, Director,  Child Support  Enforcement  Division                                                            
(CSED), supported CSSB 19.                                                                                                      
                                                                                                                                
SENATOR TAYLOR  asked if the federal government granted  a waiver on                                                            
getting information.                                                                                                            
                                                                                                                                
MS. MIKLOS  answered  that the  only waiver  the state  got was  for                                                            
hunting  and fishing licenses.   She  said CSED  is required  to get                                                            
social security numbers  on applications from various documents like                                                            
a driver's license.  She  spoke with the director of the Division of                                                            
Motor Vehicles  (DMV), Mary  Marshburn, who  didn't understand  that                                                            
the federal  government's  position was only  for child support  and                                                            
not for any  other requirements DMV  may have.  If you don't  have a                                                            
social security card, you  may still get a driver's license.  As far                                                            
as DMV is concerned, the  number only needs to be on the application                                                            
and  if  you don't  have  a  card,  then you  can  just  present  an                                                            
affidavit saying you don't  have a social security number.  She said                                                            
she  would  work with  Ms.  Marshburn  to get  this  issue  resolved                                                            
quickly.                                                                                                                        
                                                                                                                                
SENATOR  TAYLOR commented  that in  light of testimony  on the  last                                                            
bill  there is  "someone  out there  who  was arrested  for  driving                                                            
illegally and his wife  doesn't have a driver's license either - all                                                            
because of this glitch."                                                                                                        
                                                                                                                                
MS. MIKLOS  said that Ms. Marshburn  informed her that there  may be                                                            
other requirements  not related to  child support that she  needs to                                                            
research.                                                                                                                       
                                                                                                                                
SENATOR PEARCE  asked if the social  security number needs  to be on                                                            
the application only and not on the actual driver's license.                                                                    
                                                                                                                                
MS. MIKLOS indicated that was correct.                                                                                          
                                                                                                                                
SENATOR  TAYLOR  moved to  pass  CSSB 19(RES)  from  committee  with                                                            
individual recommendations.   There were no objections and it was so                                                            
ordered.
