Actually such a good idea. I might not do it because I currently dont have any form of I.D. (Lost my birth cert, dont have a passport and just lost my DL) and I have gotten mistaken for Mexican a few too many times.

    Hit up your local Department of Social Services (or similar), and try to get an ID voucher from them. They might also have resources (type varies just ask) to help you get your Birth certificate, too. And once acquired, get that passport ASAP. Never know if you'll need to leave forever.

    Thank you. I know how to get a copy of my birth cert (did it last year, promptly used it once and immediately lost it been on my list to do but ive been busy and its annoying because its a very manual process). Good point on the passport, dont have one because I never travel but as it is now I shouod keep one on hand, just in case.

    Eh its fine they run the plates im there and I have my old expired dmv id card but due to a dmv mistake its not a "real id"...so not worried about getting traffic stopped....ICE though....they pick up legals with all thier documents around here often enough (Literally a dude around here just had the same name as someone that evaded ICE at the border so he got arrested, had all his papers but yeah)
