What Is Bloomberg Thinking?
The city’s plan to stop asking prospective taxi drivers to provide proof that they are legal residents will not endanger the security of New Yorkers, a spokeswoman for Mayor Bloomberg said yesterday.
Cab drivers would no longer need to show immigration documents under changes the Taxi and Limousine Commission is set to vote on tomorrow. Instead, they will need to provide a Social Security card and driver’s license.
“To suggest that this regulatory streamlining effort in any way represents a risk to the public is erroneous,” said Bloomberg spokeswoman Jennifer Falk.
Councilman Peter Vallone disagrees, arguing that the city should not leave its security up to the federal and state agencies that issue Social Security cards and driver’s licenses.
Are they afraid of what they will find out by asking for proof of citizenship?
