Voting? Ok.
Who are the idiots that create this nonsense?
Every driver license in the USA qualifies as a REAL ID. Your expired driver license from 10 years ago, probably doesn’t(A few did though).
Every passport qualifies as a REAL ID.
Every Global Entry Card qualifies as a REAL ID.
There are a ton more IDs that qualify. Your coupon discount card from Piggly Wiggly does not qualify, so if that’s all you’ve got, you’re in dutch.
That’s RACIST! Right?
I’ve always questioned how this passes constitutional muster.
I can understand some level of searching your luggage to make sure you’re not bringing a bomb onto a plane, but once cleared in that particular fashion, why does the government need to know you are who you say you are to travel domestically?
If I don’t need to identify myself to walk from one state to the next, how does flying (or driving for that matter) change that?
and yet its “racist” to demand you prove who you claim you are in order to vote.
Seriously why do they feel the need to lead with a yellow journalism headline.
Most State DL’s are already REAL ID compliant and no need to paint this as something more egregious.
A star on the drivers license indicates it’s Real ID. The star on mine is at the upper right corner. I don’t know if that’s the location for all of them.
But not illegal aliens.
This is horrible yet we fail to realize our vehicles are traced daily as we drive by the cameras on our roads and highways.
Who watches them? It is certainly not the media, but I bet you make sure the media has revenue, don’t you?
Having a driver’s license & a VA membership card seems real enough to me. What else should be needed? And, maybe more importantly, what do they aim to charge for this “real ID” card?
Oh wonderful, now they can track us.
(btw, where’s my cell phone, is that Flock Camera working, my credit cards are somewhere, Walmart sure has some fancy cameras now...)
I like what Clint Eastwood said in one of his movies as “Dirty Harry” when he was asked by his superior to turn in his badge.
What may get interesting is that if the ID being used is one that qualifies as a Real ID, then it can be electronically CROSS-CHECKED against multiple databases...if the government so chooses, and I think this administration might just choose that option.
So, best not have outstanding parking tickets or criminal warrants if you plan to travel by air, and obviously be sure you’re legally in the country.
Minorities and women will not be able to travel if you buy the lefts talk on id to vote.
Article begins with an egregious error: It’s not a “National ID”; It’s issued by the states. Mine is simply a driver’s license with a star on it.
Including illegals? Biden’s TSA were literally escorting them to the gates.
Forget it. I don’t need to travel. Not about to take a driver education course to get one or provide original copy of birth certificate. As I recall I did that 55 years ago when I got my original driver’s license.
Or a passport
