Arnold should refuse to sign it and let the people vote this out once and for all.

Do you understand the legislative process in CA? This action is the same as if the referendum had been on the ballot. Whatever anyone does in the future could take place whether it was repealed by referendum or by this vote. When he signs it, it is gone.

Don't get excited, folks. I heard on talk radio this morning that Arnold made a deal with the original bill's author, Gil Cedillo. Arnold told Cedillo that if he'd agree to dump the bill now, Arnold would consider a revised version of it in the future. Sorry to burst your bubble.

I don’t think this issue has gone away at all. Cedillo will be pushing hard for another law as early as this January. From the Democrat perspective this is just an attempt at an end run around the opposition to the bill, why do you think so many of them support it? Maybe all of a sudden they’ve decided to represent the opinions of the majority of Californians, but I doubt it.

If you think Arnold is against drivers licenses for illegals you’re incorrect. I fear that yet again we’ll end up pandering to queue jumping scofflaws.

What happens to all the petitions that have been sent?

Cedillo(?) said that Arnold will consider another bill next year that insures background checks, more security. Will it be necessary to start the petition process all over again if this should happen?

One question, wouldn't a background check indicate the person is "Illegal" and should be deported?
