Governor Stitt praises DHS certification of OKlahoma's Real ID compliance

Statement

Governor Kevin Stitt today praised the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's (DHS) announcement that the State of Oklahoma is in full compliance with the REALID Act and regulation.

This notification comes after three years of hard work by employees at the Oklahoma Department of Public Safety (DPS) and Office of Management and Enterprise Services (OMES) to implement a new system and standards to allow Oklahoma to come into compliance with REAL ID regulations.

"The team at the Department of Public Safety has worked tirelessly to update systems and take the necessary steps to implement this critical program," said Governor Kevin Stitt."Thanks to their dedication, Oklahomans will be able to use their REAL ID compliant licenses to travel seamlessly across the U.S. and enter federal facilities. By implementing REAL ID, we are also ensuring our state remains competitive, successfully attracts new businesses and retains our hardworking people as we continue to make Oklahoma a Top Ten state."
