Stop Real ID Coalition

by Steve Meyer

(Feb 21, 2008) Mark Lerner, and another person, approached the topics involved in Real ID about three years ago. Mark examined the issues from a technology perspective while the other person came at it from a privacy viewpoint. During their journeys, they met, they discussed, and a lasting bond for the mission to Stop Real ID was born. Working together for over a year, these Patriots consolidated their efforts and like a pandemic have exploded onto the scene providing documented proof of collusion, fraud, and wrong-doings related to the Real ID Act of 2005. They have uncovered evidence against those who would strip the freedom, privacy, and security away from every U.S. Citizen under the disguise of one who was increasing their security. Mark has become the public face of the movement while the other founder retains the privacy he so treasures. Today, the team's activities have received warm welcome acknowledgments from so many, that a coalition has developed; the Stop Real ID Coalition.

The Stop Real ID Coalition is a proponent for ending the Real ID Act of 2005, the use of biometrics therein, and all of its offspring legislation. They have garnered the bi-partisan support of national and state leaders, Christian Ministries, Political Pacts, and Talk Show Hosts nationwide. Truly a sweeping partnership which crosses all political boundaries. Democrats, Republicans, and Independents have all rallied behind the effort.

Model Legislation against the Real ID, and its privacy/security weakening directives, has been drafted for and is being enacted by several state legislatures. This may be the strongest legislation to date when it comes to realistic and permanent defeat of the negative impacts of the Real ID. It is all encompassing to the point of receiving high praise from the legislators who are using it. This model legislation has passed the muster in real life use. The Stop Real ID Coalition will make it available upon request.

Massive evidence of wrong doing within the biometrics industry has been presented to Federal and State Legislators, several committees in Washington D.C., and to select others. The wheels of motion are churning at the highest levels of governance as eyes are opening to the real implications of weakening security and destroying privacy as enacted by the Real ID Act of 2005.

Real ID may well have been good intentioned. And may have seemed a logical solution on the surface. But as one digs in past the surface and unveils the reality beneath, one is quick to notice the failure and injustice that this piece of legislation holds for all Citizens of the United States of America. The freedom, privacy, and security of each of us is forever demolished by the concepts held in this single piece of legislation; the Real ID Act of 2005.

Join us. Help us put an end to the most repressive piece of legislation in U.S. History.
