But hold on, where did you get that quote you posted? Cause that's not the original bill, correct?

I found the original bill, and that exact wording is not there. The original bill doesn't say ANYTHING about expiration dates. Not even those of the legal presence document.

"The department may issue an original driver's license to the
person who submits proof of presence in the United States as
authorized under federal law pursuant to subdivision (a) and either a
social security account number or ineligibility for a social
security account number."


"an applicant who provides
satisfactory proof that his or her presence in the United States is
authorized under federal law, but who is not eligible for a social
security account number, is eligible to receive an original driver's
license if he or she meets all other qualifications for licensure."
