FYI CROSSPOSTED To those that cherish privacy: I ask that you read these links for bills proposed by Senator Simitian who many of us met in person at his Palo Alto Town hall meeting. These bills protect our personal information through a moratorium on the state's use of RFID (electronic chips readable by remote scanners). Please support Senator Simitian's efforts and send a fax or email to his office in support of this 5 part bill. If he cannot stop the use of RFIDs for identification systems, the next step will be mandatory microchipping of our animals and of humans! 2007 Privacy Bills SB 28: 3-Year Moratorium on RFID in Driver¢s Licenses SB 29: 3-Year Moratorium on RFID in School IDs SB 30: Identity Information Protection Act of 2007 SB 31: RFID Skimming Ban SB 362: Banning RFID Implants SB 364: Personal Information: Privacy http://www.senatorsimitian.com/indexphp/legislation/entry/sb_0029_3_year_mor atorium_on_rfid_in_school_ids/ http://www.senatorsimitian.com/indexphp/legislation/entry/sb_0028_3_year_mor atorium_on_rfid_in_drivers_licenses/ ~~~~~~~~ Stormy Hope California Federation of Dog Clubs www.cfodconline.org S.P.
