Enhanced driver licenses, not regular ones. These come with a whole lot of federal strings attached, and exist pretty much entirely for the purpose of traveling across the border without a passport. As far as I know, the feds require citizenship checks for any participating state.

Now, in some states, regular driver licenses have a citizen or non-citizen marker on them, but that's a whole separate thing (and AFAIK the feds don't consider them sufficient proof in any case).

States can give out enhanced driver's licenses to people who are non citizens. The only requirement is that they are here legally at the time.

That’s not correct. An enhanced driver’s license requires US citizenship.

You're right, I was confusing REAL ID with "enhanced drivers licenses"
