Letter: New license is burdensome

I have been married and driving in Washington under my married name for 52 years. For 52 years the routine has been the same, and the renewal process simple. When I applied for my enhanced license I had to submit an original certified birth certificate from the state of my birth, and a certified copy of my marriage license from the state of Washington. This on top of my current license, Social Security, and water bill.

Now ask yourself what’s behind this legal process, when illegal immigrants cross our borders with none of these documents. It feels like reverse discrimination.
