Most U.S. fliers only think of travel documents when checking their passport is valid before an international flight. But as Real ID, a new federal law mandating which forms of identification will get passengers through airport security, takes effect, that mentality will need to shift.
New rules set strict regulations on what identification will be accepted by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) at security checkpoints—even for flights within the U.S. In many cases, this means using a standard driver's license will no longer get you onboard a plane. (The deadline for travelers to have a Real ID has been pushed back to 2023 due to COVID-19 delays.)
And a list of acceptable ID can be found here.

Great share. We see a lot of complaining about documentation required to get a Florida driver license from people who move here from the states that aren't issuing Real ID licenses yet. Funny story, when Florida switched to Real ID you had to bring all required documentation when renewing your license. For married women that includes a marriage certificate that verifies name change from birth certificate. Turned out the certificate we'd been lugging around for years, and the Air Force accepted, wasn't the official certificate, just the one the pastor gives. Had to contact the county where we were married to get a "Real" marriage certificate before they would issue her a Real ID driver license.

I had to go back to the house & get my divorce papers as I went back to my maiden name. I was an A.K.A. Also needed them when I got Veteran put on my license as I changed names there too.

This was a back door way to get a "National ID" card, disguised as as state driver's licenses/state ID's. After all the hand-wringing when the gov't wanted a national ID, I'm surprised this isn't controversial.
I'll just continue using my Passport for travel.
