Are they going to have to go through driver's ed and all that stuff or are they just going to be issued a driver's license?

Good ole "one-bill Gill" strikes (out) again.
I'm hearing rumors of a new effort at an initiative, this time properly funded and with paid signature gatherers. Gill is gonna give this effort a reall send off, if he isn't careful!
We should demand licenses for all. Anyone who has the money to pay the fee should get a license. No restrictions, no requirements. It's time to put a stop to this nonsense!

I think this has pretty much been done in by the US Real ID act.
I see that Gil "Seditious" Cedillo is still at it. He'll do anything to help his fellow Latinos, the illegal alien lawbreakers.
ALL E-mails sent. Thanks for the heads-up! I sent Gil Cedillo (one bill Gil) a special one, asking him to please not bring this legislation up again.
On, no this could only happen if we don't vote for Arnold.
It won't pass the Governators desk. He is 100% against illegals getting licenses.
Heck, i was the the DMV in Long Beach the other day getting a replacement license and i could have been anyone to get a new picture and ID issued.

One-Bill-Gil wants CA to issue ("shall issue") CA drivers licences to the illegal aliens again but provides that the licenses "cannot be used for federal identification purposes."
So, how is anyone going to be able to tell the difference between CA licenses that can and cannot be used for federal ID purposes? SB 60 does not provide for any visual clues distinguishing the illegal alien licenses from the regular licenses.
People legally here must follow the provisions of the federal Real ID Act, but people illegally here are exempt. Why aliens are called "California drivers" is curious, since foreigners (legal and illegal) ought to be called foreign drivers. (Then, of course, why would they need CA licenses when they could use their own countries' licenses to drive here?)

we can't these people just use the REAL ID? Mexican licenses are perfectly legal to use here.
Unless it has a big ILLEGAL stamped on it, is not allowed to be used for any banking or accessing of public services, look for Arnold to veto it.
I thought Real ID killed this?
