into
our
agenda
for
today
we're
going
to
take
the
items
out
of
order
and
begin
with
assembly
bill
203.
C
Thank
you,
chair
Watts
members
of
the
committee
for
the
record,
I'm
Gregory
Haven
representative
assembly
district
36
within
Clark,
County,
Lincoln,
County
and
Nye
County
with
me
today.
I
have
my
colleague,
assemblyman
de
Silva,
it's
my
absolute
pleasure
to
be
here
today
to
present
assembly
Bill
203
regarding
specialty
plates
for
veterans,
specifically
our
gold
star
families
and
our
proper
heart
veterans,
like
my
colleague,
and
some
of
them
Linda
Silva.
C
A
little
bit
of
background
information,
as
you
know,
DMV,
currently
issues
a
number
of
specialty
plates
I'm
sure
some
of
you
received
them
had
them
taken
away
from
you
and
are
going
to
receive
some
new
ones
here.
Shortly
among
these
plates,
Mr
chair,
I
believe
you're
familiar
with
the
classic
plates
for
the
classic
vehicles.
A
number
of
us
are
familiar
with
the
Vegas
golden
knights
and
the
Raiders,
especially
if
you
live
down
south,
but
today
we're
here
to
talk
about
our
our
decorated
veteran
plates.
C
Honoring,
our
veterans
is
critical.
Many
of
you
know.
The
suicide
rate
of
our
veterans
is
pushing
19
percent
in
the
state
of
Nevada.
Which
is
higher
than
the
national
average.
C
We
don't
want
to
just
honor
our
veterans,
but
also
honor
the
family,
members
of
people
who
have
died
in
the
line
of
duty
or
as
a
result
of
injuries
in
the
line
of
duty.
These
families
have
have
literally
given
the
ultimate
sacrifice
and
they
should
be
honored
and
loved
again.
Special
plates
and
other
forms
of
recognition
of
their
service
is
a
constant
reminder
of
their
Kurds
and
selfishness
that
our
veterans
and
their
families
have
sacrificed
currently
Mr
chair
again.
C
I
keep
harping
on
these
classic
plates,
but
most
of
you,
I
think
know
those
classic
plates
can
can
be
personalized,
but
our
veteran,
our
decorated
veteran
license
plates
cannot,
and
that
is
part.
One
of
why
we're
here
today
is
to
allow
for
these
decorated
plates
under
assembly
Bill
203,
to
be
able
to
be
personalized.
C
They
are
exempt
from
paying
for
parking
at
the
Harry
Reid
airport
or
the
Reno
International
Airport,
but
with
their
Purple
Heart
license
plates,
they
weren't
they
were
actually
caught
off
guard
they're
like
we're
disabled
veterans.
We
don't
understand,
we
get
free
parking
with
these
plates,
but
not
with
these
plates
and
so
to
me,
assembly,
Bill
230,
is
to
say
you
know
what
you're
right.
C
We
should
honor
all
of
our
decorated
military,
the
same
including
their
their
families,
with
the
gold
stars
and
the
Fallen
military,
and
so
we
have
a
list
in
front
of
you
of
congressional
matter
of
Honor
Silver,
Star,
Bronze,
Star,
ex-prisoner
of
War
Fallen,
military
gold,
star
Pearl
Harbor
and
our
proper
Hearts
to
try
to
include
them
in
the
exemption
from
having
to
pay
for
parking
at
state
and
local
facilities.
The
third
part
of
the
bill
is
another
item
that
has
come
up
from
my
constituents
and
Mr
chair
I.
Think
you'll
appreciate
this.
C
It's
going
to
impose
criminal
penalties
for
those
that
try
to
regain
these
license
plates
to
skate
the
law.
They
want
to
get
free
parking
as
I'm
pretty
sure.
Most
of
us
know,
parking
at
the
airport
can
get
expensive
over
the
weekend
or
the
week
as
we
leave
our
vehicles
there,
but
when
it
comes
to
providing
false
information
for
for
obtaining
veteran
plates,
that's
Stolen
Valor
and
that
should
not
be
acceptable,
and
so
we
need
to.
C
We
need
to
have
penalties
in
place
to
ensure
that
people
do
not
try
to
skirt
the
system
and
use
the
system
to
obtain
free
parking
without
actually
being
a
veteran.
Lastly,
I
have
a
section
12
2
in
the
proposed
amendment
that
you
have
in
front
of
you
was
at
the
request
of
the
DMV.
As
many
of
you
are
aware,
we
have.
C
Currently,
it's
projected
to
be
July
1st
2025,
which
is
fiscal
year
26
when
that
system
should
be
up
and
running,
but
rather
than
putting
a
date
certain
in
the
bill.
We've
worked
it
out
with
legal
to
where
we
can
have
language
placed
in
here,
so
that
when
this
system
is
because
we
all
know
there
are
delays
and
hopefully
that
the
DMV
system
is
not
delayed.
D
You
Mr
chair
and
thank
you
distinguished
colleagues,
for
allowing
me
to
be
here
in
front
of
you
to
advocate
for
this
bill
and
thank
you,
assemblyman
hafen,
for
asking
me
to
be
a
part
of
this.
A
bill
presentation,
I'll,
be
very
brief.
I
have
to
go
present
in
the
education
committee.
My
own
committee
here
shortly,
but
I
do
want
to
say
that
that
when
it
comes
to
our
veterans,
I
think
this
bill
is
doing.
One
thing
that
really
is
exemplary.
D
What
we
as
a
state
as
well
as
a
country
should
be
about
it,
which
is
recognizing
the
sacrifices
you
know,
I
had
the
the
honor
of
actually
serving
alongside
assemblywoman
marzola's
younger
brother.
My
first
combat
mission
in
Iraq
was
with
Sergeant
Kane
marzola
outside
of
the
wire
and
I.
Remember
that
mission
very
distinctly
my
first
time
seeing
a
blown
up
vehicles
along
a
pathway,
Convoy
pathway
that
we
were
tracking
was
on
that
mission,
my
first
time
hearing
of
casualties
that
we
were
taking.
D
What
was
was
on
that
mission
and
my
time
in
Iraq
is
a
very
formative
time
period
in
my
own
development.
It's
really
instilled
in
me
a
commitment
to
service
and
it's
why,
in
the
end
I'm
here,
because
of
this,
a
commitment
really
to
serve
not
just
my
community,
my
State,
my
country,
but
my
my
fellow
Americans,
so
this
bill
it
it
goes
small.
In
that
nature,
we
think
you
know
just
recognizing
veterans
with
their
license.
D
Plate
is
very
meaningful
to
the
veteran
Community
we're
talking
about
now,
veterans
who
have
received
some
very
distinguished
medals,
the
Bronze
Star
Silver
Star,
the
Purple
Heart,
those
of
you
not
familiar
with
the
purple
heart
you
you,
you
get
a
Purple
Heart
by
being
injured
in
combat,
you
had
to
either
been
shot,
blown
up,
stabbed
taken,
actual
physical
bodily
wounds
from
the
enemy
and
I
myself
took
a
bullet
through
my
arm
in
Fallujah
Iraq.
Many
I
have
not
talked
too
much
about
this.
D
You
know,
amongst
my
colleagues,
even
but
I'm
disabled
I
cannot
use
my
my
left
hand.
You
know
I
can't
supinate
I
think
is.
The
word
can't
really
use
my
my
fingers
I'm
a
combat
disabled
person
at
the
young
age
of
of
22.,
so
these
small
recognitions
do
and
do
are
very
meaningful
to
us
as
veterans
and
as
a
veteran
community
and
I
think.
D
It's
also
important
to
recognize
the
fact
that
this
bill
will
also
be
extended
to
family
members,
we'll
be
recognizing
this,
the
the
actual
sacrifices
of
family
members
who
I'll
say
this
who
serve
alongside
us.
You
know
it's
it's
it's
our
our
parents,
our
Guardians,
who
are
constantly
of
worried
as
to
what's
happening
to
us,
while
we're
overseas
I.
Remember
my
own
mom
called
after
called
my
unit
and
I
got
yelled
at
I.
Got
yelled
at
by
my
staff,
sir
and
I'll
be
real
with
you,
because
I
hadn't
called
my
mom
in
two
weeks.
D
It's
important
that
we
and
that
just
it
goes
to
show
that
you
have
to
you,
know
they're,
worried
about
us
and
that's
not
even
talking
about
the
children
of
vets
or
our
active
duty
as
they're
deployed,
and
then
those
of
us
who
were
wounded
the
the
arduous
process
of
recuperation
I
myself
served.
I
was
not
sir
I
was
going
through
a
rehab
at
a
hospital
in
San,
Diego,
Balboa
Navy
hospital
for
14
months.
They
reconstructed
my
arm.
D
It
was
very
painful,
and
my
my
family
members
took
time
off
work
to
be
there
with
me,
as
I
was
going
through
this
Rehabilitation
process
so
when
it
comes
to
to
the
bottom
line
of
what
I
want
to
really
express
to
you
all
here
today
is
that
it's
important
to
recognize
our
veterans.
D
It's
important
to
recognize
the
sacrifices
of
family
members
and
I
do
wholeheartedly
want
to
support
this
bill
as
a
purple
heart
recipient
of
myself
and
I
want
to
thank
my
colleague
here,
assemblyman
Haven,
for
bringing
this
bill
forward
to
you
all
today
for
consideration.
Thank
you.
F
C
Are
all
very
thankful?
Thank
you.
Thank
you
for
being
invisibility,
Mr
chair.
We
are
here
for
any
questions.
The
committee
or
yourself
may.
A
Have
thank
you
very
much
to
both
of
you
for
your
presentation
with
that,
we'll
open
it
up
to
questions
from
the
members
of
the
committee.
F
Thank
you,
Mr
chair,
send
them
in
half,
and
you
mentioned
still
in
Valor.
How
are
we
going
to
be
able
to
protect
against
that.
C
Through
you
Mr
chair
to
the
assemblyman,
you
can
go
directly
to
the
member
moving
forward.
Thank
you.
So
currently,
my
understanding
is
when
they're
Stolen
Valor
and
please
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong
is
that
the
federal
government,
the
FBI,
actually
does
an
investigation
and
they're
the
ones
that
are
in
charge
of
Prosecuting
it.
C
So
in
this,
in
this
bill,
throughout
in
the
various
sections,
you'll
see
that
there
are
actually
penalties
that
are
put
into
place
of
fines
up
to
a
thousand
dollars
in
the
event
that
somebody
does
does
do
that
and
and
I
light-heartedly
said
that
we've
had
other
issues
with
other
plates
where
people
are
using
it
to
skate
the
system,
and
that's
actually
one
of
the
reasons
that
I'm,
including
this
is
because
we
don't
want
The,
Stolen
Valor
to
to
be
something
where
everybody
goes
out
and
gets
a
plate
because
they
just
want
to
get
free
parking.
C
D
To
add
Ruben
De
Silva
for
the
record,
an
assemblyman
one
thing
that's
important
here
is
that
when
it
comes
to
identifying
yourself
as
a
veteran
I
mean,
one
of
the
basic
documents
you
can
use
is
a
DD214
and
the
way
that
the
DMV
processes,
that
is,
they
just
take
the
piece
of
paper
and
they'll.
Then
they
can
give
you
a
plate.
It'll
say
that
what
kind
of
awards
you've
received
so
I
think
it's
it's
pretty
easy
to
actually
fraudulently
get
in
one
of
these
license
plates.
D
If
that's
the
case,
so
I
think
this
is
why
you
need
to
have
somebody
safeguards
in
places.
The,
Stolen
Valor
is
a
very
important
issue
in
the
veterans
community
and
my
particular
concern
here
is
the
fact
that
these
estate
funds
that
we're
dealing
with
you
know
when
we
talk
about
Airport
parking
fees,
City
parking
fees.
These
are
monies
that
go
towards
public
service
and
the
public
utilization.
D
So
that's
why
I
think
it's
important
to
actually
have
some
kind
of
a
safeguarding
place
and
to
and
to
address
the
issue
of
a
fraudulently
claiming
to
be
a
veteran,
especially
when
it
comes
to
the
the
utilization
of
public
funds.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
for
your
question
follow-up
and
if.
C
G
Thank
you,
chair,
not
a
question
I,
just
first
of
all
wanted
to
thank
assemblyman
de
Silva
for
your
service.
I
had
no
idea
what
you've
been
through,
but
thank
you
both
for
bringing
forth
this
bill
and
it's
my
honor
to
sign
on
to
it,
because
I
think
it's
so
important
that
we
pay
special
tribute
to
people
who
have
sacrificed
so
much.
A
Seeing
none
I
do
have
one
question:
could
you
just
repeat
for
us
for
the
members
of
the
committee,
those
that
currently
qualify
for
the
exemption
from
parking
and
then
who
would
be
covered
under
this
bill
and
related
to
that
I
know
in
you've
previously
done
some
work
around
what
percentage
of
plates,
and
perhaps
that
is
a
question
best
left
to
the
the
DMV.
But
if
you
happen
to
to
have
a
sense
of
what
percentage
of
vehicle
plates
would
be
covered,
I
think
that
we'd
appreciate
that.
C
Thank
you,
Mr,
chair,
I
I
do
have
some
of
those
numbers
here.
Let
me
just
get
to
it.
So
when
you
look
at
the
the
different
endovides
individual
plates
and
I'll
start
with
the
Pearl
Harbor
plates
in
2021,
it
amounted
to
0.12
percent
of
the
total
vehicles
that
are
on
the
road.
C
I
believe
that
number
has
sadly
coming
down
in
the
last
two
years
in.
In
regards
to
the
Fallen
military
in
2021,
there
was
a
total
of
24
plates.
The.
C
If
I
can't
find
them
right
now,
Mr
chair
I
will
provide
you
further
data,
but
that
gives
you
a
small
sample
of
The
Limited
number
of
plates
that
we're
referring
to
I
believe
that
the
purple
heart
is
probably
the
larger
of
the
decorated
plates
in
we're.
Still
not
talking
about
very
many
in
that
group.
In
regards
to
the
various
plates.
C
I
could
tell
you
off
the
top
of
my
head:
the
disabled
veterans,
the
various
disabled
veteran
plates
currently
get
free
parking
under
certain
circumstances.
The
ex
I
believe
the
xpow,
the
under
certain
circumstances,
the
Purple
Heart
and
there's
another
one
that
currently
already
receive
the
free
parking
at
the
various
locations
and
then
I'll
read
you
the
list
of
the
ones
that
we
are
trying
to
to
expand
this
into.
C
Obviously,
first
and
foremost
is
the
the
Purple
Heart
Is
expanding
to
all
the
Purple
Heart
plates,
not
just
the
limited
The
Limited
ones
that
we
currently
are,
and
it
would
include
the
Congressional
Medal
of
Honor
Silver,
Star
bronze
star,
all
of
the
xpows
again.
The
the
24
were
Fallen
military,
the
gold
stars
and
then
the
roughly
thousand
of
the
Pearl
Harbor
fiber
license
plates.
A
Thank
you
very
much
for
that
and
we'll
we'll
follow
up
and
I'm
sure
we
can
get
some
additional
details
on
those
statistics
from
the
DMV,
but
it's
very
helpful,
especially
with
all
the
different
references
and
statute
to
just
have
that
really
clear
on
the
record
and
I
just
want
to
express
my
appreciation
for
your
efforts
to
ensure
that
we
aren't
creating
any
more
loopholes
when
it
comes
to
the
specialty
license
plates.
A
A
All
right
welcome.
Thank
you
very
much.
Go
ahead
whenever
you're
ready,
please
State
and
State,
and
spell
your
name
for
the
record
before
you
begin.
H
L-E-P-E-I-L-B-E-T,
no
more
and
I
am
the
state
chairman
for
the
United
veterans,
legislative
Council,
representing
the
nearly
279
thousand
veterans
in
our
state
and
when
you
include
their
immediate
families,
that's
a
half,
a
million
nevadans
in
our
population
about
16
percent
of
our
population.
I
am
also
the
state
Commander
for
the
military
order
of
the
Purple
Heart.
Those
were
all
of
us
that
didn't
duck
enough
and,
like
the
assemblyman
said,
yeah
I
have
holes
in
me
as
well.
I
was
temporarily
paralyzed
from
the
waist
down
and
I
say
temporary.
H
They
got
the
shrapnel
on
my
spine,
but
that's
another
story
for
the
future.
The
big
thing
about
this
bill
for
us
is
the
gold
star
families.
All
of
our
vets
are
proud
to
carry
the
plates
that
they
have
on
their
vehicles.
Now
the
gold
star
families
are
somebody
we're
missing.
They
paid
the
ultimate
price,
their
children,
their
parents,
their
spouses.
They
died
for
our
country
at
a
minimum.
They
should
be
getting
free
parking
everywhere
and
helped
everywhere.
H
I
Good
afternoon,
chair
Waltz
and
committee
members,
I'm
director
Beth
Schmidt
b-e-t-h-s-c-h-m-I-d-t
from
the
Las
Vegas
Metropolitan
Police
Department.
We
support
ab203,
assemblyman
Da
Silva
spoke
about
his
commitment
to
service
Well
Service
is
the
underlying
tenet
of
so
many
of
the
men
and
women
who
work
for
the
Las,
Vegas
Metropolitan,
Police
Department
and
who
have
also
served
our
country
both
some
of
them
as
active
military
members
and
some
today,
as
Reserve
officers.
We
thank
the
assemblymen
for
bringing
this
bill
and
we
support
it.
J
Thank
you
very
much
good
afternoon,
chair
watch,
members
of
the
committee.
My
name
is
Doug
Goodman
d-o-u-g-g-o-o-d-m-a-n
I
wasn't
planning
on
testifying
with
this
bill,
but
I'm
doing
so
as
a
retired
army,
whenever
I
see
a
somebody
says
proud.
Military,
Mom,
Dad
parent
I
always
go
up
to
them
and
say
thank
you.
J
We
get
thanked
for
our
service,
but
military
families
serve
just
as
well.
A
military
member
could
not
do
what
they
do
without
the
support
of
their
family.
So
the
fact
that
this
bill
extends
these
privileges
to
the
family
is
something
so
well
deserved,
and
you
know,
hopefully
you
will
support
it.
Thank.
A
A
A
L
Thank
you,
chair
committee
members,
Sean
sever
from
the
Nevada
DMV.
We
are
neutral
on
ab203
and
did
provide
a
fiscal
note
with
impact
on
the
original
bill
which
has
not
yet
appeared
on
Nellis.
We
did
meet
with
the
bill
sponsor
and
let
him
know
to
let
him
know
and
appreciated
him
reaching
out
to
us,
and
we
greatly
appreciate
him
working
with
us
on
the
implementation
of
this
bill
to
be
after
the
department,
finishes
its
transformation
and
move
most
of
our
services
online.
L
A
Thank
you,
Mr
sever
I'm,
not
going
to
put
you
on
the
spot
right
now,
but
if
you
could
follow
up
with
some
information
to
the
committee
members
on
the
scope
of
the
of
the
plates
that
are
under
consideration,
that
would
be
really
helpful
and
again,
if
you
happen
to
know
off
the
top
of
your
head,
that's
fine!
Otherwise
you
could
follow
up,
but
there
was
a
question
around
after
this
bill
pass
passes.
If
it
passes,
are
there
any
other
remaining
specialty
plates?
That
cannot
be
personalized.
L
Sean
sever
from
the
DMV
and
I
will
follow
up
with
you
on
that.
There
are
56
000
and
two
military
plates
currently
in
Nevada
and
I.
I
can
also
get
you
a
breakdown
of
that
as
well.
Thank.
A
C
Thank
you,
Mr
chair
and
I
was
able
to
pull
up
the
data
from
January
of
2021,
at
least
in
addition
to
the
24
Fallen
military.
There
are
55
Purple,
Heart
motorcycles,
180,
so
gold,
star
families
and
the
larger
amount
of
the
license
plates
will
be
the
Purple
Heart
veterans
which,
at
that
time
was
1200
and
again
when
you
total
up
all
of
the
different
plates
that
are
included
in
this,
it's
roughly
1500
license
plates
are
0.15
percent
of
the
total
number
of
license
plates
in
the
state
in
2021,
I.
C
Hope
that
satisfies
it.
If
you'd,
like
further
information,
I'm
sure
the
DMV
would
be
happy
to
to
give
you
more
current
information
again
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
to
all
of
you
for
allowing
me
to
be
here
today.
It's
an
absolute
honor
to
present
assembly
Bill
203,
especially
with
my
purple
heart
colleague,
sitting
next
to
me,
so
I
look
forward
to
continuing
to
honor
our
our
servicemen,
our
veterans
that
have
given
so
much
to
this
nation
I.
Just
thank
you.
Mr,
chair.
A
M
Thank
you,
chair
watts,
and
members
of
the
growth
and
infrastructure
committee
for
the
record.
I
am
assemblywoman
Melissa
Hardy
I
represent
Assembly
District
22
in
Clark.
County
I
want
to
thank
you
for
giving
me
this
opportunity
to
present
this
important
bill
today,
ab195,
which
revises
Provisions
governing
certain
fees
for
driver's
licenses.
M
Just
a
little
bit
of
an
introduction
and
a
personal
connection
to
this
bill.
I
became
interested
in
the
topic
of
recidivism
in
2015,
when
my
youngest
daughter
took
her
first
criminal
justice
course
at
UNLV,
and
did
a
report
on
the
topic
later,
as
I
ran
for
office
and
began
to
serve.
My
community
I
started
to
look
into
what
practical
measures
can
be
taken
to
assist
those
coming
out
of
prison
so
that
they
have
the
tools
they
need
to
re-enter
their
communities
and
lessen
the
likelihood
of
them
reoffending
and
being
incarcerated.
Again.
M
Recidivism
is
a
complex
issue,
but
there
are
practical,
Common
Sense
measures
that
can
be
taken
to
help
prevent
and
reduce
it.
One
of
these
measures
is
providing
formerly
incarcerated.
Individuals
with
the
ability
to
obtain
a
driver's
license.
Identification
is
essential
for
accessing
services,
employment
and
housing,
and
without
it
many
individuals
struggle
to
reintegrate
into
society.
M
M
Under
certain
circumstances,
the
person
may
have
to
reimburse
reimburse
the
DMV
for
certain
portions
of
the
fee.
However,
in
Nevada
there
are
still
many
individuals
released
with
only
their
prison
IDs,
which
is
not
accepted
as
a
valid
form
of
identification
for
transactions
such
as
rental
applications,
job
applications,
bank
accounts
and
other
essential
steps
to
reintegrate
into
society.
M
Therefore,
I
introduced
ab195,
which
is
based
on
similar
legislation
passed
in
Delaware.
So
if
we
go
to
the
bill,
Section
3
of
ab195
is
adding
three
transactions.
M
That
would
require
the
DMV
to
waive
the
fees
for
one
Furnishing,
an
original
or
renewal
driver's
license
to
reinstating
a
driver's
license
and
three
providing
a
photograph
for
a
driver's
license,
including
any
reimbursement
if
a
person
submits
documentation,
verifying
the
person
was
released
from
prison
within
the
year
immediately
preceding
the
person's
applications
for
a
driver's
license
section.
One
of
ab195
requires
the
DMV
to
waive
the
25
dollars
for
the
driver's
license
examination,
not
more
than
one
time
for
a
person
who
submits
documentation,
verifying
they
were
released
from
prison
within
the
immediately
preceding
year
and
then.
M
A
N
So
I
know
that
we've
been
trying
to
implement
the
real
ID
process
and
I'm
just
trying
to
figure
out
how
this
will
work
with
obtaining
a
real
ID.
There
are
some
other
specific
requirements.
N
M
Melissa
Hardy
for
the
record.
Thank
you
for
the
question
so
that
that
might
be
a
good
question
for
the
DMV
if
they
are
still
issuing
I'm
driver's
license
and
IDs
other
than
the
real
ID
and
how
long
that
would
continue,
because,
as
you
mentioned,
there
are
when
you
get
the
real
ID,
you
have
to
provide
certain
documentation
for
that.
So
I
would
definitely
look
into
that.
M
A
G
Bill,
it's
only
important
to
help
people
not
slide
back,
but
I
just
had
a
quick
question
in
section
two
sub
four:
the
active
duty
military
when
they
come
back,
they
have
30
days.
M
Melissa
Hardy
for
the
record.
Thank
you
for
the
question
assembly
woman,
like
I,
said
this
was
based
off
similar
legislation
passed
in
Delaware
and
I,
just
felt
just
to
kind
of
go
off
those
parameters
and
to
give
them
time.
Basically,.
M
G
A
O
You
chair
and
thank
you
for
for
bringing
this
bill.
I
appreciate,
Common,
Sense
solutions
that
make
things
better
for
folks
who
are
need
a
second
chance
in
life
right.
So
my
quick
question,
though,
is
I,
know
we're
talking
specifically
about
driver's
licenses.
Well,
what
about
folks,
who
maybe
did
not
have
a
driver's
license?
Would
they
be
able
to
also
just
get
a
basic
state
issued
identification
card?
Thank
you.
M
Melissa
Hardy
for
the
record.
Thank
you
for
that
question.
It's
one
that
I've
had
talked
with
many
groups
and
individuals
about,
because,
yes,
not
everybody
drives,
everybody
is
interested
in
driving,
and
so
you
know,
how
can
we
we
help?
Those
individuals
and
I
I
am
certainly
open
to
that
and
again
working
with
the
DMV.
Is
that
something
that
is,
would
a
delay
what
this
bill's
in
trying
to
do?
Or
is
it
something
we
can?
M
You
know,
incorporate
rolling
this
out,
because
I
yeah
I
certainly
would
want
those
people
that
just
need
an
ID
to
be
able
to
get
that
as
well.
So
I'm
definitely
open
to
discussing
that.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you
additional
questions
for
members
of
the
committee,
seeing
none
I
do
have
a
couple
of
quick
questions
so
and
I
appreciate
that
you
mentioned
some
of
the
existing
statutory
language
in
section
three
of
the
bill,
that'll
also
references
folks
who
have
been
in
County,
City,
town,
jail
or
detention
facilities,
I
see
that
you
know
most
of
the
language
that
is
proposed
for
inclusion
in
this
bill,
specifically
references
the
Department
of
Corrections.
A
You
know
and
I
know
that
sometimes
this
stays
in
those
local
jail
facilities
are
short,
but
sometimes
there
there
can
be
a
a
decent
length
term
of
incarceration
that
could
lead
to
folks
kind
of
falling
into
similar
circumstances.
So
I
was
just
wondering
if
you've
contemplated
that
and
if
you
would
Envision
kind
of
applying
that
more
broadly
than
folks,
just
released
from
ndoc
custody.
M
Thank
you,
chair
Watts,
for
the
question
Melissa
Hardy
for
the
record.
Yes,
this
is
also
another
topic
that
has
I've
been
having
conversations
addressing.
That
I
specifically
spoke
with
Las
Vegas,
Metropolitan,
Police
Department
and
again
they
could
address
this
more
in
detail.
Your
exact
point,
some
of
those
people
stay
longer
in
some
of
these
facilities.
M
Would
it
be
worthwhile
to
expand
that,
and
basically
the
feeling
was
the
majority
of
those
people
are
there
at
such
a
short
time
that
it
wouldn't
be
beneficial
to
expand
what
this
bill
is
trying
to
do,
but
again
they
can
give
you
more
information
as
to
who
they
talk
to
in
the
local
facilities.
Regarding
that
but
yeah,
that's
a
great
option
and
I
have
considered
that
as
well.
A
Thank
you
all
right,
seeing
no
other
questions.
Thank
you
very
much
again
for
the
presentation.
With
that
we'll
move
on
to
testimony
on
assembly
Bill
195.,
we'll
begin
with
testimony
and
support
here
in
Carson
City.
Anyone
wishing
to
provide
testimony
and
support
down
in
Las
Vegas.
Please
come
forward.
A
P
K-A-T-I-E-B-R-A-N-D-O-N
and
I'm
the
public
health
intern
at
the
fines
and
fees,
Justice
Center
and
a
master
of
Public
Health
student
at
UNR.
We
are
in
support
of
assembly
Bill,
195
and
we'd
like
to
thank
assemblywoman
Hardy
for
bringing
this
bill
forward
in
Nevada
where
public
transportation
options
are
limited.
Having
a
driver's
license
is
key
to
accessing
transportation.
P
Here
in
Nevada,
people
are
released
from
prison
with
a
minimum
of
25.
We
hope
that
people
have
more
than
that,
but
inmate
savings
are
consistently
depleted
by
paying
thousands
of
dollars
for
medical
care
during
their
stay
in
prison.
As
a
result,
many
people
are
released
with
that
minimum.
Only
25
dollars
to
try
to
access
housing,
food,
Medical,
Care
and,
of
course,
Transportation
the
fee
to
get
a
driver's
license.
Forty
one
dollars
is
nearly
twice
that
exempting
recently
released.
People
from
these
fees
would
remove
a
significant
barrier
to
accessing
a
driver's
license.
P
Having
a
driver's
license
increases
access
to
Transportation,
which
is
key
to
preventing
recidivism.
We
recently
conducted
a
survey
of
nearly
400
currently
incarcerated
individuals
in
Nevada
and
over
one-third
of
them
cited
lack
of
Transportation
as
a
reason
for
their
incarceration.
By
helping
people
get
driver's
licenses,
we
can
lower
their
risk
of
reoffending
and
returning
to
prison
access
to
transportation
is
also
a
social
determinant
of
Health.
Increasing
access
to
Driver's
Licenses
increases
a
personal
person's
options
for
housing,
work,
child
care
and
food
which
all
promote
Health.
P
Extensive
research
has
shown
that
people
who
are
incarcerated
are
more
likely
to
have
high
blood
pressure,
asthma,
cancer,
arthritis,
tuberculosis,
hepatitis,
C,
HIV
and
other
chronic
health
issues.
All
of
these
conditions
require
extensive,
regular
in-person
medical
care,
which
is
so
much
easier
to
access
when
you
are
able
to
drive
when
you
release
from
prison,
we
urge
your
support
on
this
bill
to
increase
access
to
Transportation,
reduce
recidivism
and
promote
Health
among
previously
incarcerated
individuals.
Thank
you.
Thank.

I'm,
a
police
detective
representing
Las
Vegas,
Metropolitan
Police
Department
good
afternoon,
chair
Watson
committee
members.
We
support
bill
ab195
to
help
the
Nevada
Department
of
Corrections,
facilitate
and
assist
release
inmates
to
re-enter
Society.
A
valid
driver's
license
is
a
necessity
to
secure
a
job,
housing
and
bank
account
to
name
a
few.
Our
goal
should
be
to
position
released
inmates
for
Success
upon
release
in
which
a
valid
driver's
license
would
help
that
tremendously.
Q
Although
this
bill
was
focused
on
the
Nevada
Department
of
Corrections
Las
Vegas
Metropolitan,
Police
Department
has
programs
and
resources
similar
at
Clark
County
Detention
Center
to
assist
released
inmates
which
has
helped
with
success
to
reintegrate
into
society
me
personally,
this
bill
affects
me,
I,
remember
vividly
as
an
adolescent,
my
father,
who
was
incarcerated
many
hardships
trying
to
get
back
into
society
to
be
productive.
We
appreciate
assembly
woman
Hardy
for
bringing
this
bill
forward.
Thank
you.
R
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Mr
chairman
John
Pirro
j-o-h-n-p-I-r-o
from
the
Clark
County
Public,
Defender's
Office,
one
of
our
goals.
When
we
do
this
job
is
to
hopefully
never
see
another
person
get
arrested
again,
and
this
is
a
very
easy
step
to
make
sure
that
somebody
gets
back
on
their
feet
once
they've
served
their
time.
We
are
super
grateful
for
assembly,
art,
assemblywoman,
Hardy

Bill
forward.
We
urge
your
support.
Thank
you.

you.

Good
afternoon,
chair
members
of
the
committee
Erica
Roth
on
behalf
of
the
Washoe
County
Public
Defender's
office,
I
Echo,
the
sentiments
of
my
colleague,
Mr
Pirro
41
dollars,
may
seem
like
nothing,
but
that
can
literally
be
life
or
death
for
one
of
our
clients
when
we're
talking
about
getting
back
on
their
feet.
So
we
thank
the
assembly
woman
for
bringing
this
forward
and
are
in
full
support.
Thank
you.
S
Aisha
Goins
a-e-s-h-a-g-o-I-n-s
on
behalf
of
the
NAACP
of
Las
Vegas.
Thank
you,
chair
and
committee.
I
want
to
thank
assemblywoman
Hardy
for
bringing
this
bill.
This
is
kind
of
personal
for
me,
I
have
a
brother
who
was
incarcerated
and
one
of
the
things
that
I
remember
my
father.
Dropping
everything
to
do
was
ensuring
that
my
brother
had
ID
so
that
he
wouldn't
have
to
be
afraid
of
being
stopped
or
not
having
proper
identification.
S
I
don't
drive,
but
I
can
understand
the
importance
of
driving
and
having
the
driver's
license,
and
for
my
brother,
that
was
the
number
one
thing
my
dad
did
not
want
him
to
be
on
the
streets
without
him,
so
this
just
eliminates
the
process
of
that
concern
for
formerly
incarcerated
persons
and
also
allows
them
an
opportunity
of
getting
their
dignity
back
and
I.
Think
that
that's
one
of
the
things
that
we
forget
is
our
formerly
incarcerated.
S
T
Hello,
thank
you.
My
name
is
Jody
Hawking
j-o-d-I-h-o-c-k-I-n-g
I
am
the
founder
and
executive
director
of
return,
strong,
we're
an
organization
comprised
of
families
of
the
incarcerated
and
formerly
incarcerated
people
I'm,
going
to
actually
kind
of
step
out
of
that
role
a
little
bit
today
and
and
give
you
more
of
a
personal
scenario.
T
Assembly
woman,
Dickman
I,
think
that
this
might
actually
help
answer
your
question
about
why
a
one
year
as
a
community
I
think
it's
important
to
be
setting
up
people
for
success
and
removing
barriers
that
that
cause
difficulties
in
re-entry.
T
One
of
the
things
is
the
financial
burden
on
families.
When
my
husband
came
home
in
2018,
he
had
been
incarcerated
for
19
years
and
we
had
to
purchase
everything
that
he
potentially
needed.
Shoes
clothes
like
he
needed
a
driver's
license.
He
needed
it
and
it
was
all
on
my
income
and
I
was
already
raising
kids
and
grandkids
and
everything
else,
so
removing
that
barrier
is
huge
for
families
and
the
person.
T
What
also
happened
was
that
it
took
almost
six
months
for
him
to
be
able
to
get
his
driver's
license
because
he
had
been
incarcerated
for
so
long.
That
he
couldn't
identify,
he
was
ident,
he
was
incarcerated
under
an
alias
and
so
his
information.
When
he
came
out,
we
had
to
start
right
from
a
birth
certificate
and
he
couldn't
be
found
that
led
to
like
a
depression
which
honestly
he's
back
incarcerated
now
and
I
feel
like
had
we
really
set
him
up
for
Success?
T
We
may
be
in
a
very
different
situation,
so
we're
in
full
support
of
this
assembly,
Bill
195,
and
we
really
think
assembly
woman
Hardy
for
bringing
it
here.
U
Good
afternoon

here
in
support
of
assembly
bill
195..
We
want
to
Echo
the
sentiments
of
everyone
who
testified
before
us.
Easing
the
ability
to
get
a
driver's
license
will
help
people
better
able
to
reintegrate
into
society,
attend
necessary
appointments,
Access
housing
get

more.
We

you.

We
are
here
today
in
full
support
of
assembly.
Bill
195.
individuals
who
are
re-entering
Society
should
not
have
to
pay
fines
and
fees
as
they
work
to
establish
their
lives
after
incarceration.
This
bill
makes
our
system
more
Equitable
because
it
will
help
individuals
who
are
already
struggling
with
basic
necessities,
an
added
expense
tied
to
getting
your
driver's
license
back
or
any
kind
of
ID.
V
For
that
matter
is
not
necessary
and
honestly
is
prohibitive.
Many
people
cannot
afford
the
fees
as
they
are
re-entering
Society.
We
should
support
these
individuals
as
they
are
members
of
our
community.
That
is
why
we're
here
today
to
urge
your
support
for
ab195.
Additionally,
we
want
to
extend
a
sincere
thank
you
to
assemblywoman
Hardy
for
bringing
this
important
bill
forward.

you
for
your
time
today.

State

That
leads
to
let
nevadans
vote
Coalition
and
we're
here
in
strong
support
of
ab195.
Two
sessions
ago,
the
legislature
took
an
important
step
by
reinstating
the
voting
rights
of
formerly
incarcerated
nevadans,
and
it's
our
belief
that
ab195
builds
on
this
progress,
as
it
has
the
potential
to
make
a
significant
difference
in
the
lives
of
formerly
incarcerated
community
members.
W
When
people
are
released
from
prison,
many
are
denied
a
wide
range
of
resources
because
they
lack
an
ID
or
updated
driver's
license.
Having
a
driver's
license
ensures
that
they
have
access
to
essential
resources
such
as
housing,
a
better
job
bank
accounts
and
the
ability
to
register
to
vote
and
cast
their
ballot.
Formerly
incarcerated.
Nevadans,
however,
still
face
obstacles
and
limitations
that
are
not
only
that
not
only
prevent
their
full
integration
into
our
communities,
but
also
perpetuate
their
disenfranchisement,
and
a
lack
of
a
driver's
license
can
lead
to
further
restrictions
and
hardships.

Hello

It's
already
hard
enough
for
those

are

this
is

I'm,
founder

director
of

reform,
assemblywoman
Hardy
and
all
those
testifying
in
favor
have
brought
forward
all
the
arguments
on
how
this
bill
would
help
prevent
recidivism
in
2000.
During
the
2019
session,
the
legislature
passed
a
bill
and
was
signed
into
law,
restoring
the
voting
rights
of
those
released
from

J

Greetings
chair
and
committee
members,
my
name
is
jakaida
Chambers
I'm,
currently
the
rights
restoration
coordinator
at
Silver,
State
voices
I'm
here,
testifying
in
complete
support
of
ab195
and
appreciate
assembly,
woman,
Melissa
Hardy
for
bringing
the
legislation
any
fee
waiver
designed
to
relieve
our
formerly
incarcerated
brothers
and
sisters
of
one
less
burden
in
re-acclimating
back
into
society
is
an
easy
support.
For
me,
this
legislation
is
something
that
will
undoubtedly
have
a
positive
impact
on
a
group
of
individuals
whose
struggles
are
Monumental
upon
re-entering
Society
struggles.
Z
Z
I
know
that
there
are
hindrances,
as
of
not
having
their
driver's
license.
That's
commonplace
from
the
Transportation
hurdles,
to
DMV
scheduling,
complications
and,
most
importantly,
the
financial
bondage
of
the
majority
reinsurance
Society
with
ab195
has
the
potential
to
help
your
incarcerated
constituents
believe
in
communities
support
for
their
return.
I
think
that
is
what
Reigns
most
vaulted
to
me.
This
is
a
Monumental
step
in
helping
our
brothers
and
sisters
know
this
body
specifically
believes
in
their
coming
back
home.
Z
So,
whether
or
not
folks,
comprehend
or
not,
this
legislation
is
a
quality
step
towards
ending
the
revolving
door
of
incarceration.
The
empathy
it
takes
to
provide
assistance
to
those
coming
home
from
incarceration
can
and
will
go
a
long
way.
It
is
my
hope
that
this
committee
on
growth
and
infrastructure
supports
this
legislation
and,
in
turn,
support
the
mothers
and
fathers,
daughters
and
sons
leaving
the
department
Christians
on
their
way
home.
Thank
you
so
much
and
enjoy
the
rest
of
your
evening.

AA
Using
a
model
known
as
holistic,
defense,
I
also
love
someone
who
is
currently
incarcerated
and
serving
a
20-year
sentence.
We
know
many
former.
We
know
that
many
formerly
incarcerated
people
say
themselves
that
not
having
a
driver's
license
or
ID
is
one
of
their
biggest
problems
with
re-entry
and,
as
we've
heard
today,
valid
ID
is
pivotal
in
order
to
acquire
many
other
elements
of
re-entry
that
have
proven
successful
at
reducing
recidivism.
AA
It's
one
thing:
to
have
the
option
in
Nevada
to
have
one's
license
reinstated,
but
the
reality
is
when
there
are
fees
associated
with
doing
so,
it
stops
being
an
option
if
one,
if
one
needs
financial
means
to
access
it.
When
we
keep
these
fees
in
place,
we
limit
people
from
being
able
to
obtain
a
necessary
document
to
access
other
necessary
things.
Like
employment.
AA
Opening
a
bank
account
renting
an
apartment,
buying
a
car,
even
responsibilities
associated
with
being
a
parent,
depending
on
how
long
someone
was
locked
out
for
the
spectrum
of
anxiety
associated
with
re-entry
can
be
tremendous
structural
barriers
to
re-entry
worse
than
this
I
had
a
friend
who
was
locked
up
in
Lewisburg
Penitentiary,
who
talked
a
lot
about
what
we
might
do
as
smaller
anxieties
of
relief.
He
talks
about
his
first
time.
AA
Post
Release
at
checkout
counters,
I'm
sure
the
proper
way
to
check
out
because
of
new
technologies
being
unsure
about
how
to
interact
with
the
person
at
the
checkout
counter,
as
he
was
suddenly
unsure
about
small
talk
and
the
regular
steps
for
the
checkout
process.
Feeling
the
Panic
of
uncertainty
arise
within
him.
There
are
so
many
unseen
battles
like
this
one
that
recently
incarcerated
people's
face
in
getting
their
lives
back.
The
Panic
of
uncertainty
shows
up
at
multiple
points,
and
these
are
often
symptoms
of
structural
barriers.
AA
Spending
money
on
bus
fare
to
go
to
the
DMV,
hoping
to
obtain
your
necessary
ID.
Only
to
find
that
you're
expected
to
pay
money
that
you
need
for
food
and
public
transit
is
an
instant
where
the
three
entry
Panic
Rises
up
for
many
with
a
person
who
finally
received
a
job
offer.
Despite
navigating
discrimination
from
countless
employees,
employers,
they
Panic
wondering
how
they
will
be
able
to
fill
out.
Their
paperwork
still
be
hired
without
their
ID
and
then
not
have
a
license
to
drive
to
get
to
their
job.

L
Thank
you,
chair
Committee,
Member,
Sean,
sever
from
the
Nevada
DMV.
We
are
neutral
on
ab195
and
did
provide
a
fiscal
note
with
impact
on
the
original
bill,
which
is
on
Nellis.
We
did
meet
with
the
bill
sponsor
and
appreciated
that
to
let
her
know
and
also
appreciated
her
reaching
out
to
us.
The
proposed
changes
in
the
language
would
result
in
a
loss
to
the
DMV
for
fee
revenue
for
licensed
issuance
renewals
and
reinstatements,
as
well
as
card
production
fees
that
cover
the
cost
of
card
creation.
L
A
Thank
you
that
would
be
great
and
one
more
that
I
have
is
just
a
question
around
the
existing
statute
on
photography
vendors.
So
they
have
the
ability
they
may
waive
fees
and
I
was
wondering
what
happens
in
practice.
Do
those
vendors
waive
the
fees
in
those
circumstances
or
do
they
not.
L
Sean
sever
from
the
DMV
and
I'll
have
to
get
back
to
you
on
that
one
chair
and
to
answer
the
the
two
questions.
First
of
all,
the
real
ID
offenders
can
as
long
as
they
have
the
required
documents.
They
can
get
a
real
ID
and
those
documents
are
listed
on
getrealnevada.com.
L
A
All
right,
thank
you
very
much
and
I
will
just
remind
the
committee
that
any
fiscal
matters
will
be
resolved
in
the
Ways
and
Means
Committee.
So
this
is
just
a
consideration
of
the
policy
aspect.
We
do
have
a
question
from
assemblywoman
Peters.
AF
Thank
you,
chair
with
regard
to
the
real
ID
and
the
documentation
you
need
to
bring
in
it's
a
it
can
be
a
significant
burden.
I
I
got
turned
flat
ass
around
to
for
not
having
everything
I
needed,
because
I've
changed
my
name
and
had
babies
and
ought
like
every
life
choice.
I've
made
has
made
it
harder
for
me.
However,
it
is
my
understanding
that
if
you
were
born
in
Washoe,
County
or
married
in
Washoe
County
that
the
DMV
here
at
least
will
has
a
partnership
that
can
look
at
those
records.

In
closing,
I
just
would
like
to
thank
you
again
for
this
opportunity.
In
my
conversations
with
those
involved
in
the
Criminal
Justice
Reform
Community,
it
became
evident
that
getting
a
driver's
license
a
fairly
simple
if
inconvenient,
errand
for
most
of
us
was
made
exceptionally
difficult
for
those
being
released
from
prison.
M
I
think
the
least
we
can
do
is
offer
to
give
them
that
hand
to
be
successful
to
enter
their
communities
and
further
their
progression
and
I
liked.
One
comment
one
of
the
callers
mentioned
that
said
this
gives
them
a
piece
of
stability
to
help
them
rebuild
their
lives
and
the
lives
of
their
families.
So
I,
thank
you
for
your
time
and
we
will
get
you
any
additional
information.
You
asked
for
and
I
hope
that
you
will
support
this
Bill.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you
very
much
with
that
I'll
close
the
hearing
on
assembly
Bill
195
members.
That
brings
us

our

is
