Napolitano endorses PASS ID bill – Federal Computer Week
Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano has endorsed the Providing for Additional Security in States’ Identification Act (PASS ID) legislation in the Senate that would repeal parts of the controversial Real ID Act of 2005.
Under Real ID, states must collect personal information from drivers, store the information and electronically share it with other states. PASS ID, introduced June 15 by Sen. Daniel Akaka (D-Hawaii), would eliminate many of Real ID’s information-sharing requirements.
