Nice Start

BOSTON (Reuters) - Maine lawmakers on Thursday became the first in the nation to demand repeal of a federal law tightening identification requirements for drivers' licenses, a post-September 11 security measure that states say will cost them billions of dollars to administer.

Maine lawmakers passed a resolution urging repeal of the Real ID Act, which would create a national digital identification system by 2008.

"Urging Repeal" is a good start and I am happy to see a few states addressing this issue. I really want to see a few states nullify this law entirely and simply ignore this un-Constitutional imposition from on high.
