Under what powers, delegated to the United States by the Constitution, is the REAL ID legislation derived from?
Herein lies the problem with REAL ID, it’s yet another step that gives the federal government powers it was never intended to have, while taking liberty away from the people. By James, At March 31, 2008 2:40 PM QUOTE FROM ABOVE BLOG COMMENT ENTRY: One of our US senators said, “It [REAL ID] wasn’t properly considered in the Senate, it creates a national ID card, and it’s a massive unfunded mandate.” ************* YOUR SENATOR WAS WRONG. It is neither a so-called national ID card, nor is it underfunded. States can apply for grants to pay most of the cost.

This is 2008, 7 years since the 2001 attack on the NY World Trade Center Towers and nothing seems like it gets done.
