In past legislative sessions, Arkansas United (AU) was able to successfully pass legislation including: tuition equity, and allowing DACA recipients to become nurses, teachers, and ALL other professions that require a state license or certificate. We were also able to open up DACA student access to state scholarships like the Governor's Distinguished Scholarship.

This legislative session, AU is committed to building on our past success and working to pass a bill that would allow ALL Arkansas taxpayers (ITIN Holders) to obtain a driver's license in the state of Arkansas. This was inspired by our Oklahoma neighbors who filed and successfully ran similar bipartisan legislation last session.
As a community leader, your signaled support would go a long way to garner additional cosponsors/support for this bill.

HB 1429

This bill expands eligibility for driver's licenses to additional Arkansans who don’t currently qualify. 

Currently, Arkansas law permits certain non-citizens to obtain a driver’s license with required documentation and renewal periods. This bill clarifies and extends eligibility to additional non-citizens who provide documentation of their identity, Arkansas residency, and taxpayer status through an ITIN and three years of taxpayer history. 

This bill is needed for two main reasons: 

1) Having additional licensed drivers improves public safety for the community and for law enforcement.

2) Employers need employees to be able to travel quickly and safely to and from work everyday.


This bill only extends eligibility to non-citizens who are able to provide legal documentation of their identity, their Arkansas residency, and their valid tax history through an ITIN and 3 years of taxpayer history.

There are 18 states + DC that have a similar laws in the books.

There are 7 states that currently have introduced and/or are currently running driver's license bills in their legislative sessions, including:

Oklahoma, Indiana, Michigan, Maine, Idaho, Nebraska, Texas

Minnesota has their DL bill going to their Governors Desk as it passed the Senate 02/22/23
