Opposition to REAL ID Act
In a letter, Montana governor Brian Schweitzer declared his opposition to the federal REAL ID Act, calling on governors of 17 other states to join him in confronting the federal government. The Department of Homeland Security says that it will not accept driver’s licenses from non-complying states starting on May 11th.
If no resolution is reached, residents of those states would not be able to use their driver’s license to enter a federal courthouse or board a plane without a pat-down search. Over 20 states have already passed resolutions opposing the Act.
