What a crock of shit!

So in 2020 you must have a Gold Star on your VA license in order to fly any place.

Not just to fly.

To enter any federal government building where
they check IDs I imagine that includes not only
museums like the National Archives and Library of Congress,
or actual Government workplaces, but also visiting
any secured government contractor offices.
Military bases of course.

Pretty soon, trains.
Don't know about busses.

However, if you are a illegal alien, no ID required
for any of these things.

Yeah, uh this came out of the 9/11 commission. Something like 9 of the 19 9/11 hijackers got driver's licenses at DMV branches in Fairfax County. "Progressive" states like Maryland,Massachusetts and New York have been fighting this for years. Ya see, it's hard to commit voter fraud when you need all the supporting documents.

If you think terrorists won't simply fake a gold star on a license or get some fake papers to get a REAL ID you're kidding yourself. Real ID is a complete joke.

Christ! So now everybody in Virginia has to go back to the DMV in person and get a Gold Star license. Oh the joy of presenting documents to the DMV.

You know whatever documents you bring(DMV is asking for four different types of ID for Real ID) the DMV is going to reject one of the documents and you'll have wasted your day standing in line. Not to mention that every DMV is going to be overloaded in the next couple of months with everybody in VA having to get a new license.

Right. And rich people are so smart that they never pay any income taxes.

VA upped their security a long time ago when they added the transparent picture and a few other security features. Some states still use the old VA license style, those are really easy to fake.

Get or renew a valid US Passport. REAL-ID is done at the DMV, but once you have a passport, the process there is much easier than without one. Took me less than an hour.

Here's what I don't understand. If you have a valid passport, you don't need a REAL-ID license to fly. So, if I have a valid passport, why can't I just present that to the DMV and get my Star? Why do I have to have anything but my valid driver's license and my passport? Seems redundant.

You can thank the libtards once again for this mess.

They decided that all the illegals needed driver's licenses so they just started handing them out. This made the licenses about as valid as a blockbuster video membership card, so now we have to do it all over again and get real licenses for everyone else.

Fun!

Let's make this a little more accurate and a lot more complicated.

President Bush signed the REAL ID Act into federal law in May 2005, setting minimum standards for identification considered acceptable by the Federal government for access to Federal buildings, nuclear power plants, and commercial airline flights. (The Act also made other changes too that we can skip.)

As noted, you can still use a valid Federal ID, such as a U.S. passport, to gain entry into a Federal building or to pass through TSA airport security. Given more people use their State driver's license as "valid" ID, the REAL ID Act gave the States time to implement the Act and demonstrate compliance.

Initially, the Act gave the States 3 years. Government officials complained, and DHS extended the deadline to 2014 for everything but air travel. Air travel changes were set to 2018 with a very limited exceptions.

Currently, every State excluding OR, OK, and NJ complies with the REAL ID Act. (DHS granted these three States an extension through 10/19/2019, which is now a moot point.)

Per the REAL ID Act, you must provide the following documentation to obtain a compliant driver's license: 1) Full Legal Name; 2) Date of Birth; 3) Social Security Number; 4) Two Proofs of Address of Principal Residence; and 5) Lawful Status.

For Virginia, DMV requires: 1) one proof of identity, 2) one proof of legal residence, 3) two proofs of VA residency, 4) one proof of your Social Security number, and if applicable, 5) your current driver's license.

Once you meet the requirements, VA DMV issues you a new driver's license with a BLACK STAR (sorry, not gold star).

I guess if it's important to you, you can always change it to gold with a magic marker.

It's a government thing. Intelligent people won't understand.

Virginia relaxed their licensing standards about 10 years ago to accommodate illegals wanting licenses and IDs. They started accepting Mexican Matricular Consulate IDs and other docs that were largely fraudulent.

The Virginia DMV was almost completely in compliance with the law signed in May 2005, then regressed.

Hey! Look at that! Only 19 years after 9/11! I mean...you know...one fucking shoe bomber and everyone has to take their shoes off beginning the very next day.

God is great!

I have uber 5 star rating.
I on “no fly” list too!

I want gold star on license!
Star mean more $$$$

Peace be to allah

Does the guy you sell your meds to teach you this conspiracy theory shit.

BTW if Virginia messed it up 10 years ago that means it was done by a Republican governor.
