The reality of Real ID: states push for changes to federal law

Article Abstract:

The federal Real ID Act of 2005 has been rejected by six states because of its daunting implementation costs. The federal government sees that drivers' licenses can be used as a tool to combat terrorism, because it is a widely used form of identification. Other than costs, issues such as privacy and security arise from the implementation of the act.
