New ID rules begin Monday at U.S. borders
Border crossings will require passports or new high tech documents starting Monday, finalizing the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative. The rules, delayed by state concerns, aim to tighten security eight years after 9/11 while affecting travelers and border towns. Officials say about 80 percent already comply with proofs of citizenship. Local reactions mix sadness and acceptance as lines form at crossings and courthouses.
