@sapphire @skylar @eriner I mean it obviously is political will and it intersects with the ambiguity about identity that is useful for illegal labor, the biggest challenge for real id is verifying the original identity before issuing the card, wanting to avoid requiring it for voting id while still requiring the id for driving, and general stubbornness against making the card free before requiring it. as I said a bunch of states already do it, you can temporarily opt out of it but if you do you can't fly or enter a courthouse
