@cwebberChristine Lemmer-Webber Seems like this law is easily challengeable, given the purpose of a DL is to accurately identify the driver.

Oh look the ACLU has already filed suit [February 27, 2026]:
"Today’s lawsuit challenging SB 244 was filed in the District Court of Douglas County on behalf of anonymous Plaintiffs Daniel Doe and Matthew Moe by the American Civil Liberties Union, the ACLU of Kansas, and Ballard Spahr LLP. The lawsuit charges that SB 244 violates the Kansas Constitution’s protections for personal autonomy, privacy, equality under the law, due process, and freedom of speech."

@JizzelEtBass@kolektiva.socialWilliam Canna-bass @cwebber@social.coopChristine Lemmer-Webber unfortunately the case law at least if they did this federally would likely fall on the side of the state, so unless there's something in the kansas constitution in particular that would disallow this i fear it'll stick :/ this article gives a really good run down: https://www.liberalcurrents.com/the-politics-of-passports/ EDIT: notably the tenth circuit mentioned in the case law referenced is the one kansas is in, so that makes a repeal extra unlikely
