Doing away with "driving authorization card" and fingerprinting for illegals and replacing with a standard driver's license. And, BTW, sign everyone up to vote at the same time: What possibly could go wrong with that??

[Slyfox]

Yep, motor-voter means that illegals will be allowed to vote without going through the usual hoops.

New Mexico joins old Mexico.

“It just makes the whole process much simpler,” said Sen. Gerald Ortiz y Pino, D-Albuquerque

Just fling the entire border wide open. That would really simplify things. "Simplification" is what's really important. National sovereignty -- who cares about that? It's an outdated, old, white patriarchal concept. Nobody needs those things any more.

And they will all be authorized to vote. Damn what they are doing to that beautiful state.

NM will never have another Republican Governor and will probably stay Blue forever. And NM doesn’t have as many illegals as a number of other states.

compromise aimed at preventing undocumented immigrants from obtaining licenses but still allowing them to drive legally

The (possibly) ultimate oxymoronic statement. Yet Democrats seem to be able to be continually exceed the bounds of ultimate and oxymoronic. So I must assume that ultimate idiocy can never be achieved by the left.

Dave, I’m in a pessimistic mood about our country and its sovereignty.

Seek into their countries and try to get a driver’s license

Will we now be non compliant with the real ID Act? Need a passport to board a plane?

[JWNM]

Unfortunately,the current legislature is passing lots of other laws under the radar. From what I hear coming out of Santa Fe is that it is at a frantic pace. This state is being fundamentally changed and will never be the same.

[Seaplaner]

NM Dems (just like Cali Dems) will be WAYYYY too late in figuring out that this takes away THEIR vote, as well.

[butlerweave]

Don’t worry citizens of New Mexico you get to pay for all this insanity

Are these “non-Fed ID compliant “ drivers licenses accepted by other states?

[Gay State Conservative]

To renew my license recently I had to produce my passport,Social Security Card and proof of address.

[Revel]

So much for the Federal law making it illegal to aid Illegal aliens.

[TLI]

NM bites the dust.

And they will all be so shocked and offended when sane areas of the US reject them.

Too bad.

So technically we are no longer the United States, right? Nothing united about us.
