Beginning January 1, 2020, the Secretary of State shall issue, on the request of a person who elects to receive it, an acquired brain injury identification card in accordance with this section. [PL 2019, c. 506, §1 (NEW).]
1. Issuance. Upon receipt of a completed application and payment of a fee of $5 by an applicant, the Secretary of State shall issue a wallet-sized acquired brain injury identification card to the applicant.
