And we (South Carolina) are now on the list. In the fall, it was reported that people from four U.S. states may need a passport to fly domestically this year however The Department of Homeland Security has increased the list of U.S. locations not offering state driver's licenses that comply with new federal regulations known as the Real ID Act. The complete list now is: Alaska California Illinois Minnesota Missouri New Jersey New Mexico South Carolina Washington state Puerto Rico Guam U.S. Virgin Islands Under the act, all licenses must be equipped with machine-readable technology, which typically comes in the form of a chip. The IDs being issued now are considered non-compliant. So , will we (the State of South Carolina) comply or do we all need to renew our passports? Thank you and thank you for all you have done for the State of South Carolina to date. Respectfully Michael W.Carroll
