From "Mexican Consulate helps locals with their papers":
Yara Duran wants to open a bank account to start saving money for her 1-year-old daughter, Ashley.
[Duran obtained] her "matricula consular," a form of identification issued by Mexican consulates all over the world that identifies her as a Mexican citizen. With that document, she will be able to open a bank account.
"In the bank they told me I needed that," Duran said. "And here I am."
...Alberto Martin, North Shore Bank branch manager in Milwaukee [said] "This is our third venture with the Mexican Consulate. We have participated in activities like this before in Milwaukee and Green Bay and now in Racine.
"I believe we are creating a union, a joint work with the Mexican consulate to help Mexicans to obtain matriculas consulares."
If you object to this, please contact the bank's president, Jim McKenna, at 1-800-236-4672 or through this complicated form. The editor of the Racine Journal Times is Randolph Brandt: rbrandt@journaltimes.com
North Shore Bank is THE snob bank of Milwaukee. Good thing I bank at a credit union.
North Shore Bank is just doing what the Bush administration wants it to do, i.e. facilitate Mexican illegal immigration.
