Well, now they can vote too, because motor voter forbids the asking of proof of citizenship before registering to vote. Should make for more democRAT voters.

This doesn't make sense. There is nothing to prevent a citizen of a foreign country from getting a US drivers license. They legitimately do it all the time (the problem is when the license does not expire with the visa).

This bill must have something else in it.

Did they not get a driver's license in Mexico? I mean really, what is the point..? To allow non-citizens to vote in our elections! And just what "other" documents would be acceptable?

Shoot em, and send em back. Tired of this whining about immigrants.

Supporters said the measure will help people from Mexico who are living and working in the state.

Supporters? No doubt guilt liberals and the money behind them - the "business" community, especially trucking companies. Another attack on the middle class American citizens. New Mexico will become the new Tennessee for terrorist I.D.'s.

Ping.

Very bad. Throw them out..let them enter legally if at all.

[A Lone Voice]

Don't you need a Social Security card/number to get a drivers license? If they're not issuing a Social Security card to these illegals, how does that add up? Any way you look at this one, it should be challenged in court immediately.

Stop the insanity!

A Mexican national can register a car in Mexicio and then legally drive it into the United States.

A Mexican national can apply for a driver's license in Mexico and then use that license to apply for an international driver's license with which they can then legally drive in the United States.

Also, using their international driver's license, a Mexican national can get auto insurance in the United States.

So a Mexican national living in the United States has no need to apply for a driver's license from one of our 50 states.
