What this amendment would do

SA 5786 is an amendment proposed by Mr. Lee and Mr. Hagerty to be added to a previous amendment (SA 5453) for bill S. 2. Its purpose is to create a REAL ID Enhancement Fund within the Department of Homeland Security.

This amendment aims to add a section to the bill that provides grants to eligible Tribal, territorial, and State agencies for the following purposes:

To add an indication of citizenship to all REAL ID-compliant identification cards and driver's licenses for citizens or members after their status as a United States citizen is confirmed.
To perform any work needed to meet the citizenship indication requirement.
To provide these enhanced identification cards to every United States citizen living in those territories or States, or who is a member of those Tribes.

To fund this, the amendment appropriates $6,165,000,000 for fiscal year 2026, which stays available until September 30, 2029.
