Two county commissioners who voted against the measure expressed concern over the potential for fraud in connection to using a nonprofit to issue the IDs.
Officials in Florida's Miami-Dade County voted Tuesday in favor of issuing county identification cards to those who don't have other forms of ID.
Instead of the county producing the cards directly, it will provide $200,000 to Branches, a tax-preparation nonprofit, thereported. René Garcia and Joe Martinez—the two commissioners who voted against the measure in a 7-2 vote—expressed concern over the potential for fraud in connection to using a nonprofit to issue the IDs.
"If we think that this is not going to lead to fraud, that this is not going to lead to opening the door for other activities to happen in this community…we are all mistaken," Garcia was quoted by the AP.
