I'm not sure about outlawing the matricular consular. ID is ID and at various times banks have to accept foreign IDs, as do our government officials on occasion. As long as we have legal visitors those visitors might want to do some banking and might get speeding tickets and these are valid times to present whatever ID their government is providing and each bank or government agency is going to have to decide if that's good enough for them. Unless a particular kind of ID is useless for identification purposes (like the old AZ drivers licenses that looked like cheap school yard forgeries) there's no reason to set a blanket policy.

If they are in the country legally, they have no need for a Matricula Consular as a form of photo identification. They can use their passport, their foreign drivers' license or ID card, etc.
