The Hispanic National Bar Association is working to develop a high-technology universal identification (ID) card for Mexicans that would satisfy public safety concerns and give Mexican immigrants access to such services as bank accounts. In Northeast Ohio, the new card would help to bridge the divide between the city of Cleveland's policies and the state of Ohio's regarding Mexican immigrants who have not yet gained American citizenship. Hispanic National Bar Association regional president Alex Sanchez, who is based in Cleveland, Ohio is working with Frank Krajenke, a member of the Hispanic Bar Association locally and nationally. The new card, called the matricula consular, would list the person's name, where they are from, where they are residing in the United States and their date of birth. A method to include fingerprints on the card is being developed along with a central database of Mexicans who live in the United States. The Hispanic National Bar Association, founded in 1972, represents more than 25,000 attorneys, judges, law professors, law students and paralegals from the United States and Puerto Rico.
