The biometric data applies ONLY to newly entering IMMIGRANTS. Here's the language:
Section 3109
SEC. 3109. DNA TESTING. Section 222(b) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1202(b)) is amended by inserting ‘‘Where considered necessary, by the consular officer or immigration official, to establish family relationships, the immigrant shall provide DNA evidence of such a relationship in accordance with procedures established for submitting such evidence. The Secretary and the Secretary of State may, in consultation, issue regulations to require DNA evidence to establish family relationship, from applicants for certain visa classifications.’’ after ‘‘and a certified copy of all other records or documents concerning him or his case which may be required by the consular officer. (emphasis added.)
In other words, the only thing about biometric testing in the entire bill is that if someone wants to gain entry to the United States by claiming that they are a child of a legal immigrant, they have to provide the DNA proof. Nothing in any way requires the collection of any biometric data from any U.S. citizen.
That sounds about right. I do remember them collecting biometric data on illegals. Believe that started a few years ago.
India has been capturing biometric data on all of its citizens to administer its welfare system. From about 2010(?). So in this case, India, that is, they ARE going after the entire population though this may be immigrants legal and illegal in the USA right now.

Could you please give me a link to this information?
I believe that you are wrong. I just posted the link above. Go to the biometric section. There are clearly parts of it that apply to everyone traveling through a certain location-regardless of immigration status.
