REPORT FINDS BIOMETRIC ID CARD COULD COST TAXPAYERS AT LEAST $40 BILLION

April 23, 2012 (1 min read)

"A new report, released by the Chief Justice Earl Warren Institute on Law & Social Policy at UC Berkeley School of Law, is a first-ever in-depth analysis of the costs of establishing a biometric employment identity card. Hard to BELIEVE: The High Cost of a Biometric Identity Card finds that a biometric ID card would not only have a price tag of over $40  billion in initial costs, but also $3 billion in ongoing annual expenditures.  The study finds that such a card would infringe on Americans’ civil liberties, and fail to stop the employment of undocumented immigrants." - Warren Institute, Feb. 9, 2012.
