A group of illegal immigrants is suing the state of Oregon to overturn a voter-approved initiative that denied them driver's licenses.
The lawsuit, brought by five illegal immigrants, comes after Oregonians passed Measure 88 last year with a strong two-thirds majority. Thirty-five of Oregon's 36 counties voted against licenses for undocumented residents, as did every congressional district in the state, most of which are represented by Democrats.
But the lawsuit alleges Measure 88 is unconstitutional because it "arbitrarily" denies driving privileges based on membership in a "disfavored minority group." It alleges Oregon voters were motivated by "animus toward persons from Mexico and Central America."

What's next? A lawsuit to make Cinco de Mayo a national holiday?
No. The next lawsuit will be to reverse the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, and remand political control of the Southwest (including California) back to Mexico.
Welcome to Aztlan, Greengo!
The Libs are pure evil.
Wow, once again, Political Correctness is more important than popular will, even in a Blue State.
If Oregon is willing to pass this, perhaps a Republican could win the state in 2016.
Let’s see how the libtards heads explode if some presiding judge has the balls to rule that these cretins do not have standing in his court to bring such a suit.
THEY ARE HERE ILLEGALLY! THEY HAVE NO ‘RIGHTS!’
What part of that is so hard to understand? Deport! Deport! Deport!
[[denies driving privileges based on membership in a “disfavored minority group.”]]
Yep- and bank robbers are a disfavored minority group too and shouldn’t be discriminated against by beign arrested
And rapists are a disfavored minority group, and shouldn’t face prosecution
and murderers are a disfavored minority group and shouldn’t be condemned too
and...
and...
and...
Cripes! You’re NOT a group- You are criminals! Regardless of your ethnicity- You are NOT an ethnicity, you are criminals! What the hell don’t you CRIMINALS get about that?
What next? Prisoners demanding their freedom because they are a disfavored minority group?

Or actually ARRESTS these CRIMINALS for breaking our laws!
Are there any English or secondary English speaking countries that enforce their damned borders and have an actual process for immigration that values the worth the immigrant to their Society and CULTURE?
If so which country are they and how long does it take to go through the process?
Simple question. How does a group of illegal immigrants sue anybody in this country?!
denies driving privileges based on membership in a “disfavored minority group.”
Yeah. Criminals. You are called illegal aliens for a reason.
“Are there any English or secondary English speaking countries that enforce their damned borders and have an actual process for immigration that values the worth the immigrant to their Society and CULTURE?”
English is the official second language of both India and China. So yes there are. Just not any that you want to live in
The next lawsuit will be illegal aliens demanding the right to vote.
“disfavored minority group” = criminal aliens
Newspeak.
Suing Oregon from jail or are they in Mexico?
If you drive you need a license and insurance.
A driver license should be nothing more than proof you’ve passed a driving test, know the rudiments of traffic law, and can recognize and obey traffic signs and signals.
It is not necessarily proof of citizenship or legal residence, although it can have a distinguishing mark or words to indicate either, or their absence.
JHMO, YMMV
waiting for cal to pay for auto insurance insurance for illegals
We had a chance to have pay at the pump which would have resulted in all drivers paying insurance, but we voted it down.
