The government of Mexico through its consulates, distributes the cards throughout the United States, mostly to those living in the country illegally.
The Durham City Attorney issued the following statement on the matter: "The official purpose of the card is to demonstrate that the holder is a Mexican citizen living outside of Mexico. It includes an official Government of Mexico issued ID number and bears a photograph and address of the Mexican National to whom it is issued."
Since the announcement, the city council has received dozens of complaints from citizens, many worried that the cards will lead to illegal aliens voting in elections.
Mitch Kokai with the John Locke Foundation told WTDV: “It really doesn't tell you anything about the legal or illegal status of the person being in the United States.”
Kokai continued: “That could be the path that leads from this card to the official document - to being able to vote - and I think for voter integrity that's a concern a lot of folks should have.”
The move will make Durham the only city in the nation to accept the cards for conducting business with city agencies. It would also serve as acceptable identification with the police.
In September, the staff of the Mexican Consulate in Raleigh came to Charlotte’s Concord High School to sign up thousands of Mexican nationals for Matricula Consular cards and passports.
While Mexican officials made the ridiculous claim that they are distributing the documents so that the illegal aliens can safely return home, the real motivation is to assist Charlotte’s large illegal population in obtaining driver’s licenses.
According to the NCDOT website, the North Carolina DMV accepts “Matricula Consular cards issued by the Mexican consulate FOR North Carolina.”
Also needed for a license is “Proof of Identity Documents,” and any “Valid, unexpired Passport from any nation” will fulfill that requirement.
Another reason for the distribution of the Matricula Consular cards is to help Mexican illegal aliens secure bank accounts, credit cards, and loans in this country.
Of course, we all know that on October 26, 2001, President Bush signed the USA Patriot Act. However, I would wager to say that almost no one knows that contained in section 326(b) of the USA Patriot Act is a provision that allows US banks to accept Mexican Matricula Consular cards as a valid form of ID for opening bank accounts.
It should be noted that while our President and Congress ordered American banks to recognize these Mexican-issued cards, there is not one Mexican bank which accepts their own government’s Matricula Consular card as a valid form of ID, because the bearer’s identity is basically untraceable.
So, beware North Carolina…if the national pattern holds true--in the coming months you can expect to see an increase in DUI accidents thanks to the pending driver’s license distribution, not to mention illegal aliens voting in future elections…courtesy of Mexico.

First of all, a Matricula Consular card is tantamont to holding a huge sign over your head and saying "I am an illegal alien. What are you gonna do about it?". What the hell is wrong with these stupid liberals. We should be forcing them to breed elsewhere, not making it easier to set up and swarm an area
