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.

The MO governor Greitens claims this will be fixed by 2018, but others say he spoke too soon and the administrative fix is not in place (to get new licenses or whatever we need to do).
Clear as mud.

Why not go the Japanese way..?

All people who aren’t citizens MUST carry on their person at all times Foreigner Identity Cards.

It’s simple.

They’re not under a microscope. They’re failing to comply with a 17 year old law. Which is why said law keeps getting put off. Though New York is finally in compliance, so they might not delay anymore.

This cycles up every 6 months or so, the politicians flex their muscles, and another 6 month extension gets granted. Each year, a few more states get on board, but I’ll be somewhat surprised if this ever gets enforced.

I tried flying a month ago.

I’m back to driving. WAY less drama.

Well, chit, that makes my decision not to fly simple.

I thought this crap had been remedied though.

If the feral gubment will not recognize the ID how are you supposed to get a passport?

The core concept is that ID looks varied so much throughout the country that really nobody could tell the difference between a real and fake ID from 3 states over. Get them all to look basically the same and a TSA agent in NYC can tell that’s a fake AZ ID (I’ll pick on us because they were terrible, still laminated, good until you turned 65 with the same photo until they expired, they looked fake, we fixed it). That’s the theory anyway. Of course 12years 1/5 of the states still can’t manage to comply there goes the theory. It’s taken this long because so many states stay out of compliance, government, can’t even redesign IDs efficiently.

Silly, it has NOTHING to do with SECURITY, and EVERYTHING to do with CONTROL.

Sad state of affairs in my opinion. We passed this law because of foreign terrorists, and we decided that we would force Americans to have this supposedly superior ID. Americans are forced to do something in response to what foreigners did. As if the ID Americans carry somehow deters Muslim foreign terrorists.

Correct

“Allah has no son” - their own book

Reportedly, this is written on the Dome on the Rock as well.
