In my opinion. REAL ID raises multiple constitutional issues whose legal challenges could delay final implementation for years. For any new immigration measures to be effective. they must be well designed. Forcing employers. employees. and the States to use this troublesome national ID card will slow down the hiring process. stifle commerce. and not serve as an effective strategy. As a result. we should not jeopardize the future success of the immigration reforms sought in this legislation by tying REAL ID too closely to it. I do not see how it is possib~le for all of the States to have their new license programs up and running by the 2013 deadline called for in this bill. Thus.
