“A TSA agent at the Orlando International Airport demanded to see the passport of Justin Gray, a Washington, D.C., correspondent for central Florida’s WFTV news. According to WFTV, the agent was not familiar with the District of Columbia, and therefore could not accept Gray’s D.C. driver’s license as a valid form of ID. According to a later tweet from Gray, the TSA has responded by showing every Orlando agent a picture of a D.C. license. Perhaps surprisingly, this wasn’t an isolated incident. In February, a TSA agent in Phoenix delayed a D.C. resident because the traveler couldn’t present a ‘state-issued’ ID.”
