"..we oppose this requirement because our lives are not congruent to EVV systems"
 

From: NCIL Position Opposing Electronic Visit Verification:

"Beyond our opposition to the EVV requirement on principle, we oppose this requirement because our lives are not congruent with EVV systems, which are essentially government tracking systems for Americans with disabilities and seniors; these systems that would require us to stay at home all day, and speak and understand one language, or be accused of fraud."
