Illegals caught working at O"Hare Airport
I'm so glad we have alert citizens who were able to detect this activity. We all need to be constantly vigilant to protect our country's security. We need better methods to detect false IDs and must complete background checks for all employees at jobs such as these which can affect our safety.

Apparently, he feels that it will provide better documentation of their locations and status. Others feel that it is discriminatory. Here's another perspective:

Editor's note: As of November 14, 2007, Governor Spitzer has decided to withdraw his proposal! It seems he was met with an overwhelming amount of opposition and his popularity suffering a dramatic decline in the polls. This is why it is so important to make your voices' heard.
