APNewsBreak: Feds won't accept Missouri driver's licenses
APNewsBreak: Feds won't accept Missouri driver's licenses
Associated Press By DAVID A. LIEB
8 hours ago
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — Missouri residents soon will not be able to use their state driver's licenses as identification to get into most federal facilities, making it one of at least five states to lose a federal exemption from complying with national proof-of-identity requirements.
A letter from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to Missouri, obtained on Wednesday by The Associated Press, informs the state that its exemption from federal Real ID requirements will come to an end Jan. 10.
That means Missouri driver's licenses cannot be accepted as ID at military bases and most other federal facilities. It also could eventually mean that Missouri driver's licenses won't be accepted as identification for commercial airplane flights.
Illinois is in the same boat, according to Illinois Secretary of State's office spokesman David Druker, who said state officials learned late Tuesday that Homeland Security had denied an extension for compliance with federal requirements.
The 2005 Real ID act imposes tougher requirements for proof of legal U.S. residency in order for state driver's licenses to be valid for federal purposes. The law was passed in response to national security concerns after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
The Homeland Security Department previously declared Minnesota to be non-compliant, and it sent letters in October to New Mexico and Washington indicating that their exemptions also would end Jan. 10.
States originally were supposed to comply with the Real ID requirements by the end of 2009. Federal authorities have repeatedly delayed implementation to give time for states to change their driver's license procedures and make the necessary technological improvements.
At one point, about half the state legislatures had passed measures opposing the implementation of the Real ID Act. Some state lawmakers raised concerns that it amounted to an invasion of privacy and a backdoor attempt to create a standardized national ID card. Some of those states, including Missouri and Minnesota, still have laws specifically prohibiting them from complying.
But the patience of federal authorities appears to be coming to an end, and more states could lose their exemptions. Homeland Security also has been reviewing whether to grant a compliance exemption beyond Jan. 10 to Alaska, California, New Jersey and South Carolina. Nineteen others states recently received an extension of their compliance exemptions, most running until Oct. 16.
The Homeland Security Department has said it plans to announce soon whether it will begin enforcing the Real ID requirements for airplane travel. The department has said that it will provide at least 120-day advance notice before barring people from flights who have driver's licenses from states that are noncompliant or lack a waiver.
"As we continue the phased in enforcement of the REAL ID Act, the consequences of continued noncompliance will grow with each milestone," the department said in its letter to Missouri.

Oh look at this:
The Real ID Act started off as H.R. 418, which passed the House[7] and went stagnant. Representative James Sensenbrenner (R) of Wisconsin, the author of the original Real ID Act, then attached it as a rider on a military spending bill, H.R. 1268, the Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Act for Defense, the Global War on Terror, and Tsunami Relief, 2005. The House of Representatives passed that spending bill with the Real ID rider 368–58,[8] and the Senate passed the joint House-Senate conference report on that bill 100–0.[9] President Bush signed it into law on May 11, 2005.[3]
I guess I missed the sneaky attack on liberty when they attached it to the military spending bill when we killed it in the Senate.

Thank you MW. That is very good information. Americans must rise up and revolt again to have this law repealed. We do not want this at all for any reason.
We want illegal aliens deported, our borders secured, legal immigration halted for at least 10 years and people from other countries properly vetted for entry into the United States.
