Think-Tank Warns of RFID Legislation

From RFID News: The Progressive Policy Institute (PPI) maintains that Congress should hold off enacting any RFID legislation. The think tank's rationale is that legislative action taken now would likely be aimed at preventing what are only perceived harms from RFID.

Any laws passed before real harms are identified, therefore, would be premature. However, Congress should also be aware of action by state governments, so that through federal legislation, it can preempt any restrictive and conflicting RFID legislation at the state level."
