"Mississippi Homebound State Identification Card Act"; establish to create unit within DPS to provide in-home services for disabled persons.

HB 588 creates a new unit within Mississippi's Department of Public Safety to provide in-home state identification card services for residents with disabilities who cannot leave their homes due to physical impairments or severe medical conditions (as defined under the Americans with Disabilities Act). The unit would schedule home visits, train staff, and collect biometric data, requiring applicants to submit physician documentation confirming their homebound status. Eligible individuals must be Mississippi residents meeting specific medical criteria, such as mobility limitations, hospice care, or needing medical equipment for travel. The bill also updates related laws, mandates annual reporting to the legislature, and requires funding appropriations for implementation, effective July 2025.
