Next week, Oklahoma lawmakers will have the opportunity to make Oklahoma roads safer and create nearly $40 miilion in insurance savings for Oklahoma drivers. SB 669 would enable individuals who pay their taxes with an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) to qualify for a driver’s license. The bills include measures to ensure secure elections by preventing ITIN filers from registering to vote and differentiating between regular and ITIN licenses.
Please contact your State Senator and ask them to vote YES on SB 669.
