Senators Josh Hawley and Bernie Sanders have introduced bipartisan bills aimed at automated license plate reader cameras, pairing a conservative and a progressive lawmaker against widespread license plate surveillance.

Why now: The unusual Hawley-Sanders alliance on surveillance limits is drawing attention amid rising public concern over license plate tracking networks.
