MATRICULA CONSULAR ...KNOW WHAT THAT IS? IN TWELVE STATES IT IS ID!
IN THIRTEEN STATES YOU CAN DRIVE WITH IT! SO THAT MUST MEAN YOU CAN
PURCHASE INSURANCE WITH IT?
M.C.A.S. its called.. IS AN ID CARD GIVEN TO MEXICAN NATIONALS LIVING OUTSIDE OF MEXICO GIVEN TO THEM BY THE MEXICAN CONSULT.
IN 2002 SEVERAL US STATES BEGAN ACCEPTING THE ID CARDS. BANKS MOSTLY.
IN SEPT. 2004 CONGRESS DENIED A MOTION TO PREVENT FINANCIAL INS. FROM ACCEPTING THEM AS ID.
IN CALIFORNIA AN ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT CAN PURCHASE A VEHICLE AND INSURE THE CAR WITH THE MATRICULA.
AN AMERICAN WITHOUT A DRIVERS LICENSE CAN NOT PURCHASE NOR INSURE A VEHICLE!
I THINK WE AS AMERICANS BETTER TAKE A LOOK AT OUR LAWS AND MAKE SURE
THAT EVERYTHING WE SAY AND DO MATCH WITH HOW WE WANT TO RUN OUR COUNTRY!

***An important bill is now before the California Senate that will affect every Notary in the state.Assembly Bill 442 would add the Mexican Matricula Consular card to the list of acceptable documents used to establish the identity of persons seeking notarizations. The card is issued by the Mexican government to its citizens residing abroad for use as identification.
Unfortunately, the Matricula Consular card does not include certain elements that would make it acceptable as verifiable identification (as the FBI and U.S. Department of Justice pointed out in testimony before Congress in 2003). For example, while the card includes a photograph and signature, it does not include a physical description.
While the Mexican government claims that since 2002, it has taken significant measures to upgrade the security of the card, the National Notary Association recently received confirmation from the FBI saying that the Bureau's view of the Matricula card has not changed since the original 2003 testimony and that their strong concerns about the card's security continue.
The official analysis of the bill on the California State Assembly's Website states that the procedures and documents used to obtain the card are also open to question (e.g., birth certificates in Mexico can easily be forged). Additionally, state law already allows a Mexican driver's license or passport to be used as acceptable forms of identification for notarizations, and these are preferable.
The bill has passed in the Assembly and is now up for a vote in the Senate.
Similar legislation passed in 2005, 2006 and 2007 and was vetoed by the governor. I expect he would veto it again based on the federal real id act.
You would have thought that outlawing Matricula s after 9/11 would have been a no-brainer. Instead, terrorists posing as illegal aliens can board airplanes.
Consular cards allows non-citizens who are in the country illegally to use identification documents issued by foreign governments for the express purpose of bypassing the United States security laws.
Illegal aliens abuse of the Matricula Consular undermines immigration policy and weakens the mechanisms that congress put in place after 9/11 to safeguard American businesses and financial institutions against fraud and abuse; and more importantly to save lives.
Unlike state issued driver's licenses, local law enforcement cannot verify the information contained on the Matricula with a state database because none exists

The fact is that the matricula is what they have since they had been stopped from getting an ID. It used to be that they were able to get a license in states like michigan and so on and not even be legal.
Now they cannot do that so they have the matricula. The biggest thing about this matricula is the fact that they do not need it from mexico. they can get a false one here in the US.
Then they can purchase a vehicle (especially from indian dealerships) and also insurance (more often than not at a hispanic insurance company)
Though I am not biased at all, these are simply the facts.
