President Bush's Real ID Act

Subject: President Bush's Real ID Act

New York is the first state in the country to sign a contract with the federal government to implement a national identity card. National IDs would violate Americans' privacy rights by helping to consolidate data and facilitate tracking by the government. The government, your employer and your neighbors don’t need to know where you go or what you buy.

The forum, "Your Papers Please: What the Real ID Act Means for American Values," is co-sponsored by the New York Civil Liberties Union and the New York Society for Ethical Culture. Come to learn more about the Real ID Act and how to stop it.

  • It's funny. I seem to remember how the Repugs were outraged back in 1992 when Bill Clinton was promoting a nationwide Health Security card because they feared it would become a national ID card. And now they're embracing one that's explicitly for that purpose! :evil:
  • Yes, because they want to track us, but not under the guise of actually receiving health care!
