This Driver’s License Security Grant Program (DLSGP) offers funding to states aimed at bolstering the integrity and security of state-issued driver’s licenses and identification cards. The primary objective is to prevent terrorism, significantly reduce fraud, and enhance the reliability and accuracy of these crucial personal identification documents. Specifically addressing a key recommendation from the 9/11 Commission, this grant seeks to improve the authentication processes for state-issued IDs. States are strongly encouraged to collaborate in developing more robust and secure systems to thoroughly verify an applicant’s identity before any official identification document is issued, ensuring their acceptance for all official purposes.
