Bar codes are part of an electronic scanning system, yes.

Reading about the PASS ID Act here:

http://epic.org/privacy/pass_id/

RFID Use in PASS IDs: The PASS ID Act extends additional authority to DHS by allowing the Secretary to certify any driver's license or ID card, including Enhanced Driver's Licenses and the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI) cards as approved under the PASS ID Act. Enhanced Drivers Licenses and/or WHTI IDs use contactless radio frequency identification (RFID) technology.

"One prime example of an ISE are information fusion centers, which facilitate bringing together information from distributed sources for the purpose of collection, retention, analysis, and dissemination. The term "fusion center," seems to have originated from the Department of Defense (DOD,) and refers to the fusing of information for analysis purposes."

Fusion Centers are pentagon/CIA interfaces with local communities.

This proposed legislation violates so many Amendments to the Bill of Rights. This act will also fail.
