San Francisco to do What NY Couldn’t: IDs for Undocumented

san-francisco.jpgIt’s said that if you can make it in New York, New York you can make it anywhere. Well undocumented residents may want to consider a move to San Francisco, since they approved a law that will allow illegal immigrants who may be unable or unwilling to secure state-issued driver’s licenses to apply for municipal identification cards. This program is modeled after the controversial New Haven, Connecticut program. The program is scheduled to go into effect next August and will charge adults $15 for each card and $5 for children to defray costs, which are expected to run between $423,000 and $1.1 million during the first year.
