ORANGE – More than two dozen day laborers were turned away from the Resource Center on Wednesday morning for not being able to meet new identification requirements, city officials said.

The Orange City Council on Tuesday night reinstated a requirement that day laborers provide proper identification and follow federal immigration laws when using the center, a move designed to curtail what's considered a citywide day-labor problem.

“It's only day one after council discussion, and we are here because there is a lot of explaining to them regarding our new procedure,â€

The city-run center had more than 30 people visit Wednesday from 6 to 10 a.m. Six workers were able to provide identification and fill out the necessary forms needed to be matched with work.

Good for Orange County and good for those six workers who were finally treated like American Citizens.

With only six workers being eligible maybe Orange County needs to reevaluate the need of this center being open.
