Homeland Security DELAYS nationwide rollout of Real ID for another two years because of the 'lingering effects of COVID'
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Real ID regulations were supposed to go into effect nationwide in May 2023

  • States now have until 2025 'to address the lingering impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the ability to obtain a REAL ID' identification card

  • It will be necessary to board domestic flights and enter federal facilities

  • Both the right-wing Cato Institute and left-wing American Civil Liberties Union oppose Real ID and claim it's an invasion of privacy

  • The measure was first supposed to go into effect in 2008, as a legislative response to the September 11 terror attacks
