Illinois Driver's Licenses may be grounded in 2016
Illinois driver's licenses may not be good to fly by 2016 : News
What about all the states issuing licenses to "undocumented" aliens??? SPRINGFIELD, Ill. • Illinois residents might not be able to use their driver's licenses at airports starting in 2016. The Daily Herald reports the licenses don't meet requirements set by a 2005 federal law on IDs that was meant to increase security. Illinois doesn't require a birth certificate to get a driver's license, which an Illinois Secretary of State spokesman says is one of the law's mandates. The spokesman says state legislators would have to approve funding for changes to driver's license requirements. The Secretary of State's office previously estimated it would cost $100 million to $150 million to be in compliance. Driver's licenses meet the federal mandates in 22 states. As early as 2016, the Department of Homeland Security website says travelers with noncompliant driver's licenses would need another valid ID, such as a passport or military ID. |

Federal law mandates that you have to show a birth certificate to get a driver's license?
But that's too onerous to get a voter ID. |

Unions require ID's to vote in their elections; but then the very next day will label others (who want the same for US elections): racist, bigoted, homophobes. |

I renewed my DL in '13, and had a choice...A standard renewal (with the warning it might become unacceptable sometime prior to expiration), or the new fed-compliant license, which actually requires 2 other forms of ID to obtain...Soc Sec card, original birth cert, passport. Somehow I don't see airport refusals happening "as early as 2016" if still only 22 states are issuing compliant ID. |
