California allows driver's licenses for young undocumented immigrants
Los Angeles Times ^ | 10/01/2012

Posted on 10/01/2012 4:52:37 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

Young undocumented immigrants will be able to receive California driver’s licenses under legislation Gov. Jerry Brown signed on Sunday.

As many as 350,000 undocumented immigrants in California may be eligible for the Obama administration program, which waives the threat of deportation for two years for those who have no criminal record.

According to The Times' Patrick McGreevy:

Young people would qualify if they are accepted by a federal program giving work permits to those who came to this country before they were 16 and are now 30 or younger.

Brown spokesman Gil Duran said that by issuing the driver’s licenses, the state will merely be adhering to the new federal rules imposed by the White House.

I was going to say California’s roads would be jammed with 350,000 more drivers, but we all know these people were already driving anyway.

Does this mean that other states may not give reciprocity to CA driver’s license?

And they’ll promptly use these new drivers licences to register as Democrats so that they can illegally vote for the Dems while they are illegally in the US in the hope that the Dems will continue to ignore the laws of the land. A perfect circle.

We have this damned “initiative” process here in CA where the Legislature “graciously” deems us worthy to vote on a bunch of initiatives that one guesses they can’t be bothered with. Not that our vote really matters, as regarding “homosexual marriage” Prop 8 which was voided over the will of the voters by a homosexual judge. But why couldn’t we have voted on this item instead of having the Legislature and Governor just jam it down our throats?

Damn this state!

Kalifornia, The Land of Fruits and Nuts, is basically a Mexican Province now. If the Americans in Kalifornia ever wake up (or come out of their drug induced haze), they SHOULD realize that they id it to themselves.

Good lord when I had to renew my driver’s license I needed my passport (a certified copy of my birth certificate would also have sufficed), social security card and three items mailed to me as proof of address and I am a US citizen. If California is just going to hand out licenses to anybody they are worthless and ID.

Of course not.

These people do not know our laws nor does anyone enforce them against them. Nor do they care.

If they are immigrants, they have documents.
If they have NO documents they are illegal aliens.

Well, at least CA is following the ultimate Rule of the Land, the White House Czars and bureaucrats.

Brown spokesman Gil Duran said that by issuing the driver’s licenses, the state will merely be adhering to the new federal rules imposed by the White House.

Anything but following the LAW of the Land.
