Answer 1
The French politicians and legislators may be asked about this. However; per Islam teachings; it is not obligatory for woman to wear burqa or face cover. What is necessary per Islam teachings is to wear hijab that covers head, hair, and neck but not covering face and hands. Also the woman should wear cloth that covers whole body (except face and hands) and the cloth should not be so tight to figure her sexy parts and should not be transparent to what behind.
Answer 2
France practices a strong tradition of Laïcité or the dominance of non-religion in public life. This is a much more stringent anti-religious-in-government stance than what the United States has in freedom of religion. France has passed numerous laws preventing the wearing of explicit religious symbols in public places such as the Jewish Kippah, and Catholic Rosary. The Burqa gets more attention than these other prohibitions because French Muslims protest the action as opposed to the French Jewish and Christian communities which do not.
Among the many reasons cited by politicians in addition to maintaining laïcité, was the need to have women easily identifiable for identity cards and for police.

It is allowed to wear any Islamic veil not obscuring completely the face, such as the traditional veils (al-amira, Shayla, khimar, etc...). But as soon as they are used to completely conceal the face, full face Islamic veils (Niqab and Burka) are banned in the public space and especially in schools, hospitals or administrations. The person wearing it may be compelled to follow a class in civic matters and/or to pay a 150 Euro fine, and the husband who forces his wife to wear one may be fined and even face some jail time.

Why is the burqa ban controversial?
Most Western people are not against Burqa worn by women because of their religion and culture. However, with security high in Western countries it has become a problem for passport photos or any other identity photos that are needed. There is nothing wrong for the mostpart with a woman wearing a Burqa, but once in a Western country (just like Westerns would have to follow certain laws in their country) they must abide by the rules and regulations of Western Countries when it comes to the law and what they choose to do in their own private lives is entirely up to them. If they disagree then they have the right to go back to their own country where they can hide behind the Burqa without ridicule.
