Call Sen. Lieberman! Pass Act Hearing Tomorrow.

 

People are STILL being told that the Pass Act does not mention biometrics when they call.

  

Here is exactly how to respond;

1. The Pass Act does not repeal Real ID.  

2. Real ID is still federal law and the rules that require certain standards be met still apply.

3. It is true that  Biometric standards are not specifically mentioned in the PASS Act or The Real ID ACT of 2005. . .

BUT a digital facial image that meets ICAO (International Civial Aviation Organization) standards is required in the rules that direct Real ID and The PASS Act if that bill were to become law.

  

 If you are challenged on this information , you may tell them to;

4.  Please access page 68 of the NPRM (Notice of Proposed Rule Making) at the bottom of the page (footnote 17).  it states the following:

“17 The relevant ICAO standard is ICAO 9303 Part 1 Vol 2, specifically ISO/IEC 19794-5 - Information technology – Biometric data interchange formats – Part 5: Face image data, which is incorporated into ICAO 9303.”

  

You could also ask them to explain why the Privacy Imapact Assessment of the Real ID Act on page 3 states;

“as a result of the Act, state databases will contain standardized photo images that will allow law enforcement agencies to use facial-recognition technology to help apprehend criminals, and the state DMVs will be able to use the images and application data to prevent drivers whose licenses have been revoked in one state from obtaining them in another.”

 

 

 

That is all you need to say. 

THEY need to do their homework! 

You can also refer them to the website  www.stoprealidcoalition for in depth information and evidence.

  

This information is irrefutable! 

  

Senator Lieberman is not allowing anyone who is in opposition to the PASS Act, to testify before the committee. 

Why is that?

You might  reccomend that Mark Lerner of the  Stop Real ID Coalition be allowed to testify. 

He knows this information inside and out and can explain to them exactly what, how and why the Real ID and Pass Act will create a Global Biometric ID System.

  

  These are our objections to The Pass Act S. 1261;

  

 The hearing will be tomorrow, Wed. the 15th of July and Mark Lerner is ready and willing to be there to testify.

 The focus now needs to be on Senator Lieberman who is stifling any opposition.

 The truth must be heard!!
