Last week the REAL ID Act of 2005 passed through the U.S. House of Representatives. Like the PATRIOT Act, the bill makes the false promise: that "securing" the country means rolling back freedom and targeting immigrants. 

If signed into law, the bill, sponsored by Rep. James Sensenbrenner (R-WI), will not make us safer and will not enhance immigration enforcement in any meaningful way.  Rather, it will make it harder for those fleeing religious and political persecution to access freedom, put more unlicensed and uninsured drivers on our roads, make it easier for the government to invade our privacy, and exempt the government from labor, environmental, contract, immigration, health, safety, and other laws when constructing border barriers.

Tell your Senators to vote NO on the REAL ID Act of 2005.
