Driver Licenses From Nine States Won’t Be Valid IDs for Domestic Flights in 2018
Travel + Leisure ^ | December 17, 2016 | Cailey Rizzo

Beginning Jan. 22, 2018, travelers from nine states will no longer be able to travel with only their driver’s licenses.

Residents of Kentucky, Maine, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, and Washington will have to use alternate ID forms (passport, military ID, or permanent resident card) to pass TSA security checkpoints—even for domestic travel.

I'm not completely familiar with the arguments on both sides, so I'm willing to learn, here.

That said, one hopes beyond hope, that VOTING will get such scrutiny, one day soon!

VERY interesting.

So the states with the highest population of fraud suspects have free skating - while these states, not exactly known for high population of such - are singled out.

Strange, indeed.

This is all about Real ID standards and not about illegals getting DL. Besides, CA, 10 states and DC give DL to illegals.

But it is good enough to vote!

“Houston, we have a problem,” Apollo 13 transmission when their fuel cells exploded on the way to the moon.

ps
What Houston Control did to recover Apollo 13 was magnificent engineering on the fly for a disaster that had never been anticipated. The men on board Apollo 13 were magnificent. The men on the ground at Houston Control performed a miracle of engineering and ballistic calculations. Houston Control saved those men.

I don’t think God created mooselimbs.

I think the god of Islam is Satan.

The states refused to join the REALID program established by FedGov. They were granted extensions which are now beginning to expire. I know that MO will start issuing REALID licenses, but I don’t think it requires people to “upgrade” their licenses. I’m sure that further extensions could be granted if the administration cares to.

I never understood the reasoning for the real ID act or how it enhances security for air travel.

Mohammed Atta and his boys were foreigners. Foreigners travel on a foreign issued passport.

So doing anything relating to state drivers licenses in this regard is valueless.

In addition, a number of states are now giving drivers licenses to illegal aliens. So how can anyone’s license be a reliable form of verifying citizenship?

And , even if this is a great idea, why did it take 16 years after 9/11 to get us to this point?? The real ID act was in response to 9/11. If it is such a needed tool to ID people and help security, why wait over a decade to implement it?

You don’t need a license to vote, or any ID, says Dems! There is only one reason in the world to not require an ID to vote, and everyone here knows what that is! Fraud!
