▶ Show statement of purpose

This legislation provides for a voluntary check off box on the driver's license application where one can donate $2 to a fund that will provide for 'no charge' vision screening, vision treatment and eye health exams for low income people who do not pass the eye exam while renewing or obtaining their drivers license. The donation will be directed to Envision Sight, an Idaho nonprofit corporation who will provide these services to those who do not have the means to pay for them.

▶ Show fiscal note

The cost of administration of this program will be deducted by the department of motor vehicles from the collected funds before the excess is turned over to Envision Sight.
