Senator Wants Tougher Rules For Pre-Paid Devices

The pre-paid cell phones that you see everyday are often linked to crimes and terrorist activity. Senator Charles Schumer wants to make tougher rules on who is going to be allowed to use a pre-paid phone. The bill has been introduced by Schumer and a Texas Senator. The bill would require everyone to show ID before purchasing the pre-paid phones. Civil rights groups say that this bill will threaten privacy rights.
