National Beat
News from around the state and
the nation
In response to reports
that millions of Americans’
personally identifi able in-
formation and credit card information was exposed in a data
breach at Equifax Inc., U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., intro-
duced legislation to allow hardworking Americans to protect
themselves from fi nancial fraud at no cost.
Wyden’s Free Credit Freeze Act would guarantee all con-
sumers can use PIN numbers to freeze and unfreeze their cred-
it free-of-charge to stop fraudsters from opening new unau-
thorized fi nancial accounts. The Equifax data breach, which
exposed credit information of more than 200,000 Americans
as well as Social Security numbers, birthdates and driver’s
license numbers of an estimated 143 million Americans, has
underscored the importance of credit freezes. Cybersecurity
experts and the Federal Trade Commission recommend credit
freezes as a method of protecting against identity theft.
