Analysis of Real ID regulations posted

March 11, 2007 - News

We've posted a short analysis of the Department of Homeland Security's Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) and Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) on the Real ID Act.

The draft regulations pass the buck on several issues that will be discussed with each bulleted item. These items include privacy, how personal information gets verified, and who’s going to pay for it, among other things.

Our analysis uses the bullet points from the ACLU’s March 1 2007 press release, which highlights some of the more important aspects of the implications of implementing the Real ID Act.
