Video: Virtual Signing – Virginia’s Governor Signs Law Allowing Undocumented Immigrants To Get Driver’s Licenses
Conservative US ^ | 07.21.2020 | Alex Hall

Posted on 07/21/2020 5:18:33 AM PDT by USA Conservative

Back in February Virginia passed legislation that could give nearly 270,000 undocumented immigrants living in Virginia the opportunity to drive passed each chamber of the General Assembly.

Bills passed in the House with a 57-42 vote and in the Senate with a 22-18 vote.

The so-called ‘Licenses for All’ bills allow immigrants to get a driver privilege card (essentially a temporary license) regardless of their legal status.

Previously, Virginia law required anyone applying for a driver’s license to provide proof of a “legal presence” to show you are legally authorized to be in the country.

Yesterday it was officially signed into law by Governor Ralph Northam.

He held a virtual signing Monday to celebrate the legislation that gives the Department of Motor Vehicles permission to issue driver privilege cards to undocumented immigrants living in Virginia beginning January 1, 2021.

“In addition to giving members of Virginia’s immigrant community the ability to legally drive a vehicle, this driver privilege card legislation will make obtaining valid identification accessible to all Virginia residents, regardless of their immigration status,” Gov. Northam wrote Monday.

Sen. Surovell and Del. Kathy Tran, who introduced the House version of the bill, joined Northam during the call.

Will other states recognize this license? I guess next will be temporary/illegal immigrant voter law. Oh, I’m sorry Democrats allow that now.

There is no South or North with somewhat clear borders this time around. I’m wondering when an Exodus of Conservatives will begin to be talked about and where is the destination?

It's tough to admit it to ourselves, but the country will never, ever be the same.

We allowed the Marxists/Communists/Perverts to take over every aspect of the culture, the media, the courts, academia, most government agencies, and a huge portion of government for decades. We didn't fight, not really. There is no turning around the ship. It's headed for the iceberg.

Even most of our "Republicans" are of the John Boehner stripe - weeping RINOs who line their own pockets, swill on their booze, and allow the Democrats to run roughshod all over them. Oh, they go on Hannity and make promises and threats. It's all a joke.

Trump is our fighter, but not our savior. It is now evident that he controls very little of the Executive branch, as agencies and the head of agencies (that he appointed) openly defy him, refuse to prosecute the traitors, and collude with the Globalists and the Deep State machinery.

If they don’t have drivers licenses from their country of origin, why should we supply them with illicit ID?

Dear VA,
Welcome to “ real ID”
Since your licenses are essentially worthless as proof of ID for security verification, such as flying, you will probably all have to go through the process of verifying your citizenship for addon to your driving license, as millions of us had to do in MD

But it wont stop illegals from voting
I wonder how the insurance companies are issuing policies to people who are not citizens or bound by US law

...good point....and if there are any tests, are they only in English or do they have to be taken in the native language of the applicant...? and what about road tests...? do they still require those or have they been labeled racist or something and have been done away with....?? I mean, after all, every road sign is in English and that might make some applicant(s) feel bad about themselves if they can’t understand what “STOP” and “YIELD” mean....and, gosh, we can’t have that, can we...??

Can we sue to get back the time and money spent getting our POSITIVE ID licenses? Does this action render them useless for the reason we HAD to change?

The drivers license is the de facto national identity card. It is required for opening accounts and voting. By doing this, they are deliberately and intentionally granting virtual citizenship, which is as good as real citizenship.

I am of the opinion that the Virginia’s drivers license should no longer be acceptable as ID by the federal government.
