A member of the assembly is pushing a plan to help people with autism in case they ever have to interact with police.

Angelo Santabarbara would create what he calls autism spectrum disorder identification cards.

It’s going to be something unique, easily recognizable so when they see this card they know to look for it. They know it could have critical information on how to handle an emergency situation, on how to handle a social interaction with someone that’s diagnosed on the spectrum.” The Assemblyman tells CBS6.

The Autism Society of the Greater Capital Region supports the idea.
