Durham City Council Recognizes Matricula Cards
"The Durham City Council voted on Monday in favor of police accepting identification issued by the Mexican government as legal ID. The resolution, which passed 5-2, cited IDs like the Matricula Consular. During the meeting, the council heard from members of the community," WRAL reported.
"Some argued that the ID cards, which are issued by the Mexican government to nationals living in other countries, are an important way for some to establish identity. 'It's one way you can show who you are, so it's a security issue actually,' Pila Rocha-Goldberg said."
