See Something, Say Something Act of 2011

H.R. 495/H.R. 963/S. 505, the See Something, Say Something Act, would expand the current immunity from liability to cover all persons who report suspicious activity to authorities, not just suspicious activity which occurs on Federal property or transportation systems; and H.R. 1690, the Modernizing of Documentation and Elimination of Redundant Identification and (MODERN) Security Credentials Act, which would erode the security of our nations highways by eliminating many of the requirements on those who transport hazardous waste; and Legislation that would impose a "security fee" for riders of Amtrak to be used for improving the Amtrak Police Department.
