Bodily Autonomy, No Compulsory Implants & No Universal Digital Pass
BODILY AUTONOMY, NO COMPULSORY IMPLANTS & NO UNIVERSAL DIGITAL PASS
POSITION
No American should ever be forced to receive an implanted chip, injected tracker, scannable bodily mark, permanent identifier, or similar device as the price of employment, commerce, travel, education, housing, healthcare, public benefits, voting, communication, or ordinary participation in society. Technology may assist people. It may not become a compulsory mark of permission to live a normal life.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
The human body is not an identification card owned by government or an employer. Consent obtained under threat of losing work, food, banking, housing, medical care, education, movement, or legal rights is not meaningful consent. Identity systems should remain limited to legitimate purposes, collect the minimum information necessary, and always provide a practical nonimplanted alternative.
ABSOLUTE BAN ON COMPELLED IMPLANTS & BODILY MARKS
Federal, state, local, and tribal governments, employers, schools, healthcare systems, insurers, banks, landlords, transportation providers, utilities, associations, and businesses open to the public may not require or coerce a person to accept:
a subdermal microchip, radio-frequency identifier, near-field device, or other implanted identifier;
an injected device or substance whose primary purpose is location, identity, payment, access control, or behavior tracking;
a tattoo, permanent or semipermanent mark, scannable code, or bodily alteration used as a credential;
a device capable of remotely limiting lawful movement, purchases, employment, communication, association, or access to legal rights.
This ban may not be suspended during a declared emergency. A temporary removable wristband, badge, ticket, passport, driver's license, or other external credential may be used for a legitimate specific purpose, but a practical nonimplanted method must remain available.
NO INDIRECT COERCION
A prohibited requirement cannot be imposed indirectly through a contract, grant, license, insurance term, employment policy, purchasing condition, school rule, professional credential, platform term, or government contractor. A person who refuses an implant or bodily mark may not be fired, denied service, charged a penalty, placed in an inferior line, deprived of a benefit, or treated as dangerous merely because of that refusal.
NO MANDATORY UNIVERSAL DIGITAL ID
Government may require identification for a specific lawful purpose, such as voting eligibility, international travel, a secure facility, driving, age verification, a financial transaction governed by law, or delivery of a particular benefit.
Government may not combine unrelated identity, financial, medical, employment, travel, communications, and behavioral records into one mandatory credential controlling ordinary life.
No person should be required to carry a smartphone, maintain a private technology account, use one company's device, or accept a universal digital wallet to exercise a legal right or receive an essential public service.
Every required government identification process must offer an accessible physical or offline alternative without an added penalty.
An identity credential may verify identity or eligibility. It may not become a social-credit score or a system for judging lawful beliefs, associations, purchases, or lifestyle.
BIOMETRICS MUST REMAIN LIMITED
A fingerprint, face scan, iris scan, voiceprint, gait pattern, genetic identifier, or other biometric may be offered voluntarily for convenience or used where a specific law authorizes a necessary identification function. When practical, a nonbiometric alternative must be available. Biometric information may not be sold, used for advertising, combined into an unrelated profile, or disclosed for a new purpose without specific consent or lawful process.
This policy does not prohibit fingerprints or other identifying records collected under lawful arrest, immigration, licensing, military, national-security, or judicial procedures with applicable due process. It does prohibit converting a limited lawful record into a universal permission system for unrelated daily activity.
VOLUNTARY MEDICAL DEVICES
Pacemakers, insulin systems, neurostimulators, prosthetics, medical sensors, and other implanted or wearable medical devices remain lawful when chosen through informed medical consent. A device used for treatment may collect only information reasonably connected to treatment, safety, billing, research separately consented to, or another clearly disclosed purpose.
Consent must describe the device, purpose, information collected, remote functions, cybersecurity, who receives data, expected duration, and options for deactivation or removal when medically safe.
Emergency treatment of an unconscious person may use a medically necessary device under ordinary emergency-consent law. The emergency does not authorize an identity, payment, or social-access implant.
A parent or guardian may consent for a child or incapacitated person only when the device serves a legitimate medical need or individualized safety function. It may not be used to impose a general social credential.
DATA OWNERSHIP, SECURITY & DELETION
The person must be able to access data produced by a voluntary device in a usable form.
Device providers must use strong security, disclose remote-control capability, issue necessary security updates, and provide a safe transition when support ends.
When the lawful retention need ends, identifiable data must be deleted or irreversibly deidentified. A company may not hold bodily or biometric information forever merely because storage is inexpensive.
Government access to identifiable device or biometric data requires lawful authority and process appropriate to the information sought. Purchasing the data from a private broker may not be used to evade a warrant requirement.
ENFORCEMENT & REMEDIES
A person subjected to a prohibited requirement should have an immediate right to an injunction before implantation or marking occurs. A knowing violation should permit recovery of actual damages or a statutory minimum of $10,000 per affected person, whichever is greater, plus attorney fees and the cost of safe removal or remediation. A reckless or intentional violation causing physical injury, identity theft, stalking, loss of work, denial of essential service, or mass exposure may support enhanced damages and civil penalties.
A government contractor, licensee, school, employer, or healthcare provider that repeatedly violates final orders may lose relevant public contracts, licenses, or program eligibility after due process. Existing criminal laws apply to assault, unlawful restraint, stalking, hacking, coercion, falsification, or other independently proven crimes.
WHAT WE WILL MEASURE
Public reporting should track prohibited requirements, complaints, injunctions, employment and service denials, biometric breaches, government requests, corrective action, damages, repeated violators, and the availability and actual use of nonimplanted and offline alternatives. Reports must not create a new database of people's bodies or beliefs.
Core MPA standard: Your body belongs to you. No government, employer, corporation, or institution may make an implanted device, bodily mark, biometric tracker, or universal digital permission system the price of living and participating in American society.
