HR 4633, the “Drivers License Modernization Act of 2002” is a $300 million federal takeover of State issued drivers license and ID card issuance and standards which would turn the Colorado Division of Motor Vehicles into a satellite office of the federal Department of Transportation. Yep, the same folks who seize tweezers from little old ladies boarding airplanes would be in charge of the new national ID card.
