She aimed her camera at a passing SUV and captured the moment when an officer filled the family’s vehicle with a mist of pepper spray.

Passports were a document you could use to get a Real ID as I know from experience so probably some large number of people with real ID already have passports. But there could be a class action lawsuit in it if DHS suddenly requires passports, with a TRO until State staffs up to process applications
