Sheila Dean, 511 Campaign Against Real ID

Sheila Dean of the 511 Campaign joins the program to discuss the fight against the Real ID Act and biometric identification. The campaign's name refers to May 11, the date the bill was passed in 2005, framing it as a disaster comparable to 9/11. The discussion posits that the government uses the "problem" of illegal immigration to justify the "solution" of a mandatory biometric ID card linked to a global supercomputer.
