The Obama administration is now seeking to repeal and replace Real ID, with a new proposal called Pass ID, which, according to the administration, would be cheaper, less rigorous and partly funded by federal grants.

The NCLR, with nearly $100 million in assets, also arranged to have its voice included in congressional hearings by House and Senate leaders and garnered an extra $4 million in federal tax funds earmarked by an anonymous senator in 2007 while continuing to lobby for open borders, driver's licenses for illegals, and amnesty leading to citizenship for all illegal immigrants in the country.

A new law enforcement policy focused on under-age offenders who are in this country illegally is putting San Francisco mayor Gavin Newsom into a precaurious position.
