Unreasonable , unfunded, unworkable, counterproductive!

A news story at Public Cio tells us that after the gvernors conference in Iowa, governors are waiting for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to answer several questions about Real ID so they can determine its impact.

The USA issues 227 million driver's licenses. (That means the federal government has offered the states about 43 cents per license to defray the cost of RealID.) The story says that governors determined that "the Real ID Act contains unreasonable burdens and unfunded mandates that are unworkable and counterproductive to its goals."

The governors want to know how soon they have to reissue all 227 million licenses. (Actually there will be more millions, because if you don't drive but want to fly, you need a license.)
