We only have until Feb 1st for your legislators to add their names to the EZ-ID/Molly’s Bill legislation, currently Senate Docket #1673 (until the Bill number is assigned). Their names of support on the Bill, makes a huge difference!
With your help last year, EZ-ID/ Molly’s Bill almost became a reality. The Bill would create the task force to “analyze the feasibility” of EZ-ID, which would answer the questions that the legislation would also face in the other states, therefore it is the first major step towards enacting the Program. Last year the Bill was passed in the House and Senate and was delayed because of some misinformation and later amendments to the Bill.
ASAP…Please contact your State Senator and State Representative, and ask them to co-sponsor Senate Docket #1673. Here is a link to find their names and contact information:

Thank you all, because of you…EZ-ID will become a reality!
