L.A. to consider multi-use library cards for illegal immigrants
The cards, under study now, would provide a form of identification for those without driver’s licenses and could be used to open bank accounts, transfer funds and access cash.
Los Angeles officials are considering a plan to turn the library card into a form of identification that the city’s large illegal immigrant population could use to open bank accounts and access an array of city services.
The City Council unanimously voted recently to consider the proposal, which would have Los Angeles join the growing number of cities across the nation that offer various forms of identification to undocumented workers and others who cannot get driver’s licenses because of their immigration status.
Though L.A.’s plan would not be as sweeping as those adopted by cities like San Francisco, Oakland and Richmond, it would be a major step in serving the estimated 300,000 residents who don’t have bank accounts or debit cards.
The ID card would include a user’s name, address and a photograph, and would be issued through the city’s libraries. The city would partner with a private vendor to set up bank accounts for those who want to use the library ID as a debit card. Banks generally require official identification to open an account.
But anyone able to provide proof of L.A. residency would be eligible for the library card, said Councilman Richard Alarcon, who proposed the concept. Banking services would include direct deposit, international and domestic money transfers and the debiting.

Just make sure the card reads Las Mexico on it, so other states can pass laws to make sure its not allowed or accepted in other sovereign states and they’ll know where to ship the illegals back too as well as what liberal progressive county/township or state to bill.

Fuck ILLEGALS. Fuck Lybia. Fuck Cairo. Fuck oblowme. Fuck clinton, pelowsy, dirty harry and wasserbeast. Fuck islam. Fuck hezbalah (just caught in harboring mexico.)
Send the ILLEGALS home. I woke up this morning to hear our Ambassador and staff of Lybia were killed. This just after the news of Cairo abuse of our flag and embassy and that our disgrace in chief won’t meet with Netenyahu.
Fuck everything this morning.
God Bless our Troops. Especially our Snipers.

Kalifornia is self destructing, city by city. The state will stop handing out free money eventually. The riots will consume the bigger cities. Where will the reconquistas try next?
