The purpose of the FY 2011 DSLGP is to prevent terrorism, reduce fraud and improve the reliability and accuracy of personal identification documents that states issue.
The DLSGP is intended to address a key recommendation of the 9/11 Commission to improve the integrity and security of state-issued
credit:
driver's licenses (DLs) and identification cards (IDs).
States are encouraged to work collectively to develop more secure systems to verify an applicant's identity before issuing a DL or ID that can be accepted for official purposes.
