   THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
 BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

   Section 1. Paragraph (a) of subdivision 12 of section 201 of the vehi-
 cle and traffic law, as added by chapter 37 of  the  laws  of  2019,  is
 amended to read as follows:
   (a)  Except as required for the commissioner to issue or renew a driv-
 er's license or learner's permit that meets federal standards for  iden-
 tification,  the  commissioner, and any agent or employee of the commis-
 sioner, shall not disclose or make accessible in any manner  records  or
 information  that  he  or  she  maintains,  to any agency that primarily
 enforces immigration law or to any employee or  agent  of  such  agency,
 unless:  (I)  the commissioner is presented with a lawful court order or
 judicial warrant signed by a judge appointed pursuant to article III  of
 the  United  States  constitution; OR (II) THE EMPLOYEE OR AGENT OF SUCH
 AGENCY IS SOLELY ENFORCING STATE LAW OR FEDERAL  CRIMINAL  LAW  AND  NOT
 IMMIGRATION  LAW.  Upon receiving a request for such records or informa-
 tion from an agency that primarily enforces immigration law, the commis-
 sioner shall, no later than three days after such  request,  notify  the
 individual  about  whom  such  information was requested, informing such
 individual of the request and the identity of the agency that made  such
 request UNLESS SUCH NOTIFICATION WOULD INTERFERE WITH A FEDERAL CRIMINAL
 INVESTIGATION.
   § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
