Still wondering what is really happening with the REAL ID legislation? In a report by Washington Technology, it is stated that most of the objection to the ID could be overcome if funding for the card was more available. It is expected to cost $11 billion to introduce the REAL ID over five years, and most of that burden would fall back to the states. Other concerns like privacy issues, still need to be worked out, and it will almost be impossible to get everyone to agree with one card.
