My intent wasn't to find out which states require prints, it was to drive conversation in order to refute the claim that state driver licenses are honeypots for fingerprints.
Fingerprints are not required as a part of Real ID implementation. Real ID seems like it would be the main driver for feature parity between licenses of different states. If fingerprints aren't required by Real ID, then it seems like it would be incorrect to assume that all states require fingerprints - and thus also incorrect to assume that driver licenses in the USA are used as honeypots for fingerprints.
Perhaps landemva should have specified which states are using driver licenses as honeypots for collecting fingerprints?

- landemva 5y agoIt appears JohnFen partially geolocated me! A few years ago I had top tier frequent flier status, and the airline kept offering to pay the Global Entry fee for me. Sit for a lame interview and provide a bunch of info to power-starved snooping Karens? No thanks.
