For most states, the Real ID is something you’d have to know to opt into & it costs more than a regular state ID or drivers license, not an automatic DMV upgrade you just received.
Watch this quickly become a poll tax when Real IDs are required to vote under Trump’s national voters ID law…
@blkprofcct.bsky.socialDon’t think Real ID will only effect travel - it’s not just a coincidence that the administration is focused on requiring real ID (after years of delay) while also pushing for a national photo ID requirement at the same time, all leading up to midterm elections in the next 1.5 years…
