Can you image the consequences?

Follow the money. Major backer in all states is the transportation industry. With licenses they can inflate the labor market with supply and undercut the wages of Americans and legal residents in the transportation industry.

Insurance cos. also involved, but they want to gain more premiums, they're not aiming to reduce the "cost" of their own labor.

If labor "costs" can't be reduced by outsourcing, illegals will be insourced. Unique to the transpotation industry, from trucking to pizza delivery, is the barrier of licenses. That wall protecting Americans is being undermined for short term profits.

The mexican truck drivers are already on the roads in CA through the NAFTA legislation....

Exactly. Poverty is increasing in this country because the third world in invading and middle class America is being squeezed out. Why pay a decent wage to Americans when you can hire illegals for cheap?

This is what happens when a certain sort of criminal reaches critical mass. Their criminality becomes legalized.
