The ACLU requested that I "Tell the Department of Homeland Security that REAL ID is a Real Nightmare." The Department of Homeland Security is accepting comments on its proposed regulations for Real ID through May 8, on Real ID.
I went to www.regulations.gov to submit my Comments which follow:
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has no business dictating to the several and sovereign States the format and/or contents of their respective Drivers Licenses. It is the responsibility of the States to manage the licensing of vehicle drivers as well as providing alternate photo identification devices for those who choose not to drive.
If the Department of Homeland Security has determined a need for Identification Cards acceptable by Federal Agencies for official purposes (AKA Real ID), then the DHS should implement and manage the issuance of said Identification Cards acceptable by Federal Agencies for official purposes. The DHS should not burden the States with responsibility and expense of performing DHS duties.
