Virginia Democrats Advance Bill to Give Driver’s Licenses to up to 300,000 Illegal Immigrants
Breitbart ^ | 2/7/2020 | Penny Starr

Posted on 02/09/2020 5:44:09 AM PST by Roman_War_Criminal

he Democrats’ takeover of the Virginia statehouse includes advancing legislation that would give driver’s licenses to as many as 300,000 illegal immigrants in the state.

The local Fox News affiliate reported that critics say the law would reward this demographic, which has already broken the law by being in the country illegally. Those who support the bill say it would “increase the state’s revenue and decrease the level of fear existing in the immigrant community.”

“There’s 17 other states who have done it and the other states have removed the legal presence requirement, the number of collisions have gone down,” Scott Surovell, a Democrat, said in the Fox 5 report.

Fox 5 reported the large population of illegal immigrants that could be issued licenses:

Senator Surovell says it would impact between 160,000 and 300,000 undocumented immigrants without driver’s licenses in the Commonwealth; immigrants in Virginia illegally but working, going to doctor’s appointments and more. Many who if stopped in a routine traffic stop could face being detained or deported.

Surovell says granting driver’s licenses to undocumented immigrants could generate between ten million and seventeen million dollars a year.

It is now apparent that the Democrat agenda is to fill the nation with foreigners who hate our values in order to keep the Democrats and their families in charge for generations. The foreigners are too stupid to figure that out and the locals don’t have the will to do what it takes to stop all of this. Nation fail.

Drivers’ licenses and voter registration cards. That is how we lose Virginia in November. All the illegals will be herded to the polls to vote Democrat.

All demonicrats have gone scorched earth. They know their time is short to implement their fascist dictatorships. When they gain power they move as fast as possible to consolidate that power. Suburban soccer moms enable them.

The democrats don’t care about reducing accidents. That’s just a rationalization. If they cared about reducing accidents, they would explore other options for doing so - deportation, for example.

The democrats DO care about increasing revenue, but if that were really the focus, they would consider other options - again deportation. No, deportation would not increase revenue, but it would DRASTICALLY cut expenses which is even better. The biggest single line item in some school districts is bilingual education. $10-17 million is trivial compared to the cost of illegals. My bet is that it’s in the hundreds of millions if not billions. Education, welfare, health care. $10-17 million is peanuts in comparison.

The accidents and revenue are a smokescreen for the REAL reason which is to create thousands of illegal (D) voters.

... immigrants in Virginia illegally but working, going to doctor’s appointments and more. Many who if stopped in a routine traffic stop could face being detained or deported.

That's the way it is supposed to work.

It's also the way it would work for any US citizen present illegally in any other country.

Next step will be to deem all illegals to have voted Democrat. Then they don't even have to go to the polls.

I see that the Rats don’t care anymore about America. I truly believe (and I know I’m right) that we’re dealing with an accelerated plan to instill true communism in our country. The country is saturated with subversives and foreign agents. This might sound like the ravings of a paranoid madman but what other reason would the Rats be doing this in Virginia and all over the country?

Education, welfare, health care. I forgot law enforcement, prisons, the judicial system. Another major added cost due to illegals. Plus the cost of the damage they do: theft, vandalism, car wrecks, property destruction, etc. Plus the human costs when they murder, rape, assault people (including each other).

There must be a military overthrow before it is too late.

Virginia is no longer America

Too bad Virginians allowed mccauliffe Hilary henchman extraordinaire to take the va governorship. Va has term limits but he and H are likely still in charge now with ultimately blackmailable Northam in the seat. The state will be run into the ground in short order

The new Virginia state mission statement:

Every day, in every way, we help re-elect The President.

“...to keep the Democrats and their families in charge for generations.”

Generations? Their ambition spans quite a bit more time, as in perpetuity.

The Dems will not take defeat. Nor will Trump

The gop senate will. They’ll settle back into their offices, get Ukrainian deals while not having to bother with committee chairmenships and impeachment votes nor defending their nemesis Trump

This is where the Dems are headed I would think

Trump will be powerless
