Identifying Documentation Reminder

Ensure that passports and/or State issued driver's licenses are active. Expired identifying documentation can lead to delays with security checkpoints at airports. In some cases, a Texas driver's license can be renewed online. Go to www.texas.gov/dlrenewal to check eligibility and to renew.

Are You Real ID Ready?

Beginning May 7, 2025, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security will officially begin enforcing the REAL ID Act of 2005. This means that a traditional driver’s license will no longer be accepted through airport security and all Americans will be required to present REAL ID-compliant identification to go through airport security and enter federal facilities.

Conference Travel Reminder

All conference travel should include the conference agenda attached showing the daily schedule in general and any meals included. Meals included should not be reimbursed and that portion reduced from any per diem received. It is not necessary to send the entire conference booklet, just the pages showing the schedule at a glance.
