Louisiana HB167 mandates the issuance of special identification cards and certificates of employability to inmates before their release.

Louisiana HB167 requires the Department of Public Safety and Corrections to provide inmates with relevant documentation to assist with post-release employment. This includes special identification cards for those without a current state ID or driver's license, and certificates of employability for inmates who meet certain criteria. The certificates can be used as evidence in cases of negligent hiring. The law also outlines the process for issuing, replacing, and revoking these documents, and sets a fee for the special ID cards.
