Latino and immigrant support groups are mobilizing against the proposed Real ID Act, a federal law that would prohibit states from issuing driver's licenses to illegal immigrants.

Lie. States could issue licenses to illegals, as long as they're not for use as identification, just as authorization to drive. In California, Assemblyman Gil Cedillo (D, Mexico City) wants to issue specially-marked driver's licenses to illegals, and has introduced legislation to do so. (He also wants to exempt illegals from the state's vehicle impoundment laws for unlicensed driving, which gives you an idea of how in the tank this guy is for illegals).

California, Assemblyman Gil Cedillo seems to be trying to hedge the outcome of the inevitable; his constituents, e.g Mexican nationals will not be allowed documentation other than passports and visas if they are to remain in the US.

However, his proposal would mean that legal citizens could loose there vehicles if driving without a license but people who are here illegal would be immune to such laws?

This is outrages to even suggest , but then again coming from Gil Cedillo perhaps expected!

Gil Cedillo (former member of the racial separatist organization MECHA) is the same guy that tried to pass a law to force legal residence tax payers to subsidize illegal immigrant CA auto insurance, in effect waving their obligation to pay while at the same time maintain that legal citizens cannot drive on California highways without buying insurance themselves
