Hello Everyone:

Does this mean that if someone sighted becomes blind and starts receiving
Blind pension that they have to  instantly give up their drivers liciense
and get a State issued Non driver id card.

HB 2171, the Blind Pension bill, was truly agreed to and finally passed late
on Thursday.

The amendments include the 500% poverty limit for a sighted spouse and
forbid the recipients from having a drivers license among other items.
