San Francisco city supervisor Tom Ammiano is drafting legislation to give city ID cards to illegal immigrants according to Friday's San Francisco Chronicle.
Perhaps the most liberal city in America, San Francisco would be the first large city to do this, though it has already been done in New Haven, Ct. and the move is being contemplated in New York City as well. The ID card would make it possible for illegal immigrants to receive city services in this sanctuary city. Ammiano believes this would help illegals report crimes against them and so forth. An ID card would also grant them access to health care and other government services.
Is this the signal we should be sending to those that come here illegally , even as an anti-illegal immigration ground swell across the country helped to shhot down a recent amnesty bill? Opponents are furious.. and they should be. This measure will almost surely pass... and makes you wonder.. how many illegals will vote in San Francisco during next year's elections?

~1st off... thank you for servicing and protecting our country!~
WOW do I agree! What message are we sending the illegal immigrants! I have no problem with immigrants that work hard at becoming a citizen and value what we have to offer. Why don't we just give them the green card then?! We are a country filled with immigrants and our proud of our melting pot society but most of our ancestors worked hard to enter into our established country legally!
