Please bump for support...

ATTENTION PENNSYLVANIANS and patriots within driving distance of Scranton, PA.

The PA House Intergovernmental Affairs Committee will be holding a public hearing on Real ID this Thursday at 10:00am in Scranton, PA. Two bills have been introduced in the PA House to kill Real ID in this state, but so far we do not have enough co-sponsors to override a possible veto.

As part of $45 million contract with Viisage Technology, PennDOT has already implemented biometric imaging for new/renewed drivers licenses, and have started a 15-day waiting period for a "background check" as mandated by the Real ID Act.

We must tell our lawmakers to support HB 1351 and SB 1220 to stop further implementation of Real ID before it is too late!


Please watch and share the following video, which discusses Real ID, the states' battle against it, its status in PA, and this week's hearing

Also, Aaron Bolinger of the National Veterans Committee on Constitutional Affairs and Restore The Republic, and who appears in the videos above, says...

Anyone who cannot make it to the hearing should:

1. Find YOUR state legislators (House and Senate members) by visiting the state web site, plugging in your zip code and collect their phone numbers. http://www.legis.state.pa.us/ (Look for the zip code box in the upper right corner of the front page.)

2. Contact them IMMEDIATELY requesting that they ATTEND the hearing in Scranton on Real ID (Thurs, May 8). This hearing is being hosted by the House Intergovernmental Affairs Committee (who is currently sitting tight on HB 1351 that would KILL Real ID in PA).

3. In addition, other "married" legislation that is in the IGA committee sitting dormant are HB 194 and HR 278. These would disconnect Social Security Numbers from all state licensing requirements and send a message to congress against the North American Union, respectively.

4. When speaking to your state legislators (House members), request that they IMMEDIATELY co-sponsor HB 1351, HB 194, and HR 278! When speaking to a Senator, request that they sign on to the companion Senate bill against Real ID (SB 1220).

Also, remember to join us each week (Tues. evenings @ 7:30 EDT) for our strategic conference call. Guest speakers, leadership training, legislative action highlights from the previous week, and planning for the upcoming battles for 911 truth, against Real ID & more! (We are joined regularly by Restore the Republic, the National Veterans Committee on Constitutional Affairs, the Bill of Rights Defense Committee, the ACLU's Real Nightmare project, and other coalition partners.) Dial in @ 724-444-7444 (call ID = 14259#).

Join the battle, distribute literature in targeted legislative districts, and become part of our activist team! In PA, contact James R. Compton, III (RTR State Coordinator) via e-mail [email protected] or phone (202-904-2174 x816) to plug into the network. Another hearing is coming soon in ERIE PA, so whether you are central, east, or west, WE NEED YOU NOW!

Patriot-former members of the American Armed Services are being recruited for leadership roles in our state capitols. If you can help in any way, e-mail [email protected] for more info.
