Summary

The measure permits homeless shelters or nonprofit case‑management agencies, with a person's consent, to keep physical or digital copies of Social Security cards, birth certificates, or certified birth records and requires them to protect those copies. It also directs probate judges to waive fees for a certified marriage abstract for qualifying homeless individuals and requires annual reporting on such waivers. The aim is to reduce identification barriers for people experiencing homelessness.
