Illegal Immigrants Rally for Drivers Licenses

Mar. 22 (ABC7) — Illegal immigrants in the Bay Area are protesting a new law to keep them from getting drivers licenses.

They rallied Monday outside the San Francisco home of Senator Dianne Feinstein. They're asking her to oppose the Real ID Act.

The measure has already passed the House of Representatives. It would prevent undocumented workers from getting drivers licenses.

Republicans are pushing to get the law changed. Advocates for immigrants' rights say it's discrimination.

Renee Saucedo, immigration attorney: "It's outrageous, and we believe that this is yet another way that anti-immigration forces are trying to pass their policies under the guise of homeland security, or national security."

It's estimated there are more than ten million immigrants living in the United States illegally. About one-in-four of those live here in California

If they're unhappy here - or feel persecuted -- they can LEAVE.

Illegal immigrants in the Bay Area are protesting a new law ....

That picture is just wrong. They are here illegally, thus they are already breaking the law. Now, they are protesting another law? What gives them that right or any rights? Why are they allowed to thumb their noses at the very fabric of this Nation?

Whenever they have an "illegal immigrant rights" rally, the INS should just bring the buses up and sort them out at their holding facility. How easy is this?

My question is, where was immigration enforcement? Seems like it would have been a good round-up.

As Bob Lonsberry said about illegal aliens demanding "rights," this is like a burglar breaking into your home, then waking you up and demanding that you fix him breakfast.

I do not know what it will take for America to get serious about protecting our borders. I guess another attack that is linked to someone crossing the border illegally....at times I doubt whether that would even do it.

And this is only the beginning.

They will demand the vote next.

And they'll get it.

I came on this thread to ask that exact same question. Think we will actually get a reasonable answer.
