Bush: National IDs Soon

Ronald Bailey | May 15, 2006

Illegal immigration is being used as an excuse to force all Americans to have a national ID card. Bush made this clear when he called this evening for tamper-proof IDs for temporary workers which means that everybody in the U.S. would have to have such IDs in order to tell who is a permanent worker (U.S. citizen) versus a temporary worker (foreigner). This should make the Real ID proponents happy.
