Phoenix leaders voted 5-4 Wednesday to create a city photo-identification card that would be available to undocumented immigrants and others who face barriers obtaining valid government ID.
Supporters say the ID will help many residents — including those who are homeless, immigrants and transgender — who have problems getting the ID they need to access services or go about everyday tasks.
Similar to a bank card or employee badge issued by a private entity, the city ID will be a secondary form of identification.
