Alaska Passes Law To Ban REAL ID Enactment

Alaska, on Wednesday passed into law an effective ban on implementing REAL ID in the state:

Section 1. AS 44.99 is amended by adding a new section to article 1 to read:
4 Sec. 44.99.040. Limitation on certain state expenditures. A state agency may not expend funds solely for the purpose of implementing or aiding in the implementation of the requirements of the federal Real ID Act of 2005 (P.L. 109-13, Division B).

It seems the REAL ID Act of 2006 will never become the “law of the land.” And I say, thank gods for that. (Thanks to CATO for the news)
