“Starting in April, Massachusetts residents will be prevented from using their licenses to gain access to some federal buildings — unless, of course, state officials give in and quickly adopt the Homeland Security ‘Real ID’ verification program. Then, as soon as 2016, the punishment will get more serious: Massachusetts residents will be prevented from boarding commercial aircraft if they do not provide another identity document to security screeners. It is all part of an effort by Homeland Security to prod states to follow the requirements of the 2005 law that stiffened requirements on driver’s licenses. In states following Real ID requirements, driver’s licenses feature a star.”
