Privacy Rights

Bill Straus has been among the strongest leaders dealing with the loss of privacy for citizens and its result in problems such as identity theft. As our State Representative he has filed and advocated for a number of measures to enhance an individual’s ability to protect themselves. For example, he was the original sponsor of the State Do-Not-Call list which presently has over one million consumers, and authored several measures limiting the use of federal social security numbers as an ID number on records which is a leading cause of identity theft.
