From the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel's Real ID Act Faces Repeal After Outcry From Napolitano, States comes this bit of news:

    Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano is asking Congress to repeal a post-Sept. 11, 2001, law that was meant to enhance the security of driver's licenses but has elicited the wrath of governors nationwide who say it is too costly.

Well, thank you Madam Secretary and Obama Administration for that!
