"JOHNSTOWN — The federal REAL ID program is beginning to see some real opposition in Pennsylvania.

Legislators in both the House and Senate have recently introduced bills to kill the licensing act and the groundswell touched this area when the American Civil Liberties Union hosted a town hall meeting on Nov. 29.
State Rep. Tom Yewcic, D-Johnstown, joined more than 60 people who came out to the Heritage Discovery Center to learn more about the act. "It's a fundamental attack on our individual and state rights," he said."
