Government ID

mardi 13 juin 2017 à 02:00

People in the US that don't have government ID are locked out of many aspects of life. Even visiting government offices to try to get replacement ID.

To require people to prove a permanent address to get ID is a direct and intolerable injustice to homeless people. But the injustice here is deeper and broader than that. The US is being converted, step by step, into a state where everyone must be identified. To fix this problem we must eliminate the ID requirements for many of these activities — starting with visiting government offices.
