The Safeguarding Personal Information Act of 2025 proposes to repeal Title II of the REAL ID Act of 2005 . This legislative action is explicitly aimed at safeguarding civil liberties and individual privacy by removing the federal identification document standards previously mandated. Specifically, the bill eliminates the requirements for state-issued driver's licenses and identification cards to be accepted for federal purposes. Furthermore, it includes necessary conforming amendments to other statutes, such as the Afghanistan Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2022 and the Social Security Act, to align them with the repeal of Section 202 of the REAL ID Act of 2005.
