I would tie this to reciprocity. If one state issues a driver's license, it is honored as ID in all states under federal law. So if a few states have lax guidelines, it undermines the integrity of those states who have sound guidelines.

There is no such thing as reciprocity anymore. It's gone with other parts of the Constitution. My Texas Concealed Handgun License is not honored by all other states. And the CHL is a "public act" just the same as the issuance of a driver's license or a marriage license. (States are also ignoring marriage licenses they don't like.)

There is in many areas such as marriage and driving.
