New York Senator Charles E. Schumer Conducts Press Conference to Discuss Possible Dept. of Homeland Security Funding for Increased Security Measures at NYC Area Airports

Schumer Says $50M Funding Exists for Pilot Program to Incorporate New Scanning Device at Airports; Urges DHS to Consider Technology Such as Defense ID System

PORT TOWNSEND, WA - June 28, 2010 - New York Senator Charles E. Schumer conducted a press conference today at the Woodbury, NY office of Intellicheck Mobilisa, Inc. (NYSE Amex: IDN), a global leader in access control and wireless security systems, to discuss possible funding by the US Department of Homeland Security for increased security measures at New York City area airports.

According to Sen. Schumer, $50 million in funding exists for a pilot program to incorporate a new scanning device at airports. He has sent a letter to Janet Napolitano, Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, urging the use of these funds to implement technology such as the Defense ID System, which can cross-check passengers with terror watch lists, weed out fake IDs, and track visa overstays.
