> Meclan McCullagh of CNET News.com reported late wyesterday, "The
> U.S. House of Representatives approved on Thursday a sweeping set of
> rules aimed at forcing states to issue all adults federally approved
> electronic ID cards, including driver's licenses. Under the rules,
> federal employees would reject licenses or identity cards that don't
> comply, which could curb Americans' access to airplanes, trains,
> national parks, federal courthouses and other areas controlled by
> the federal government. The bill was approved by a 261-161 vote.

> McCullagh went on to write, "Thursday's vote mostly fell along party
> lines. About 95 percent of the House Republicans voted for the bill,
> which had been prepared by the judiciary committee chairman, F.
> James Sensenbrenner, a Wisconsin Republican. More than three-fourths
> of the House Democrats opposed it." In the meantime, you can note
> how your Representative voted. Did they vote your interests? Check
> it out for yourself. http://clerk.house.gov/evs/2005/roll031.xml --
