Oakland leaders once touted a municipal identification card as a solution to an array of issues faced by undocumented immigrants and others in society’s margins.
The undocumented would have an identity card, transgender people would be able to prove who they are without a specified gender, and the urban poor would have a debit card.
Cardholders may have to bear the burden of the costs, not the city. Instead of paying, say, $30 for a card, they may have to pay $100, he said.
To evaluate that, the city would probably need to hire a consultant at a cost of $5,000 to $10,000, according to city staff.

Now let’s see: Someone gets a sex change operation and doesn’t now know what his/her ex sex was or now is and needs a card to show others that he doesn’t know. And it only cost 20 thousand, for now.
