Bill overview
The Driving for Opportunity Act of 2020 aims to help states restore driving privileges for people whose licenses were suspended due to unpaid fines and fees. It authorizes the Department of Justice to provide grants to states that haven’t suspended licenses for this reason, with the goal of reinstating licenses, particularly in areas lacking public transportation. The bill also directs the Government Accountability Office to study the impact of repealing these suspension policies and explore alternative enforcement methods.
