One Chance to Kill SB60 (Illegal Drivers Licenses), Says McClintock (CA FReeper Alert, PLEASE READ)

Okay, a little voice told me to put up this thread...
Since I heard Sen. McClintock explain this plan twice in two days, during two different radio station interviews, I thought it would be a good idea to synopsis it. (I think is an excellent idea.)

As we have all pretty much figured, the way to do something about the passage of the illegal alien driver's license law, which will be signed any moment by our traitorous, corrupt governor, lies in our "ruby slippers," our wonderful referendum process. According to McClintock, the California Republican Assembly (a group which endorsed him, and the largest of its kind in California), already is buzzing about a plan to challenge the new law "once Davis's pen hits the paper." I have already checked their website and found nothing as of yet; however, McClintock says as soon as he has more information it will be linked on his website. (Let's keep watching for this.)

Here's how it would work. Signatures on petitions would be gathered as with the recall; however, the good news is that he said only a relatively small number would be required. (Off the top of his head, McClintock didn't know the exact amount, but he thought only about 1/4 or 1/5 the amount required for the recall. It should be a lead pipe cinch to get this on this one, IMHO.)

Of course, the signatures need to be collected in the proper, legal manner - I don't have the details to post at this time, but we can get that info readily - and then appropriately forwarded. The good news, according to Sen. McClintock, is that as soon as they are collected and forwarded as required by law, this ridiculous new law MUST BE IMMEDIATELY STAYED UNTIL THE NEXT SCHEDULED ELECTION. That would be MARCH 2004 if we can get the signatures quickly enough. And remember, this idiotic law doesn't go into effect until Jan. 1, 2004. Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could beat it to the punch entirely? Does anyone seriously have any doubts we'd knock this thing out in a referendum election?

Another thing, he mentioned that the CA Republican Assembly is not only talking about a referendum, but a possible lawsuit. He didn't give any more detail than that, though...this is all just at the beginning stages, naturally.

Anyway, I thought we could all use a little hope and a positive outlet for our righteous anger. We need to stick together and work positively to show these idiots that this is still OUR STATE, not theirs!

C'mon California FReepers, we did it before and we can do this again. I can think of a couple of dozen people right off the top of my head - not to mention everyone one on Free Republic - who would sign the petition. Please let's use this thread to start brainstorming, posting links, etc. Show everyone what we are made of...we CAN beat this thing!

Also, I desperately need pings to all the usual suspects - especially everyone on the California list. Can someone please do that? I don't know how. Even bumps to this thread would be greatly appreciated. We must keep this out there in the public forum. CALL RADIO STATIONS if you can. Remember, talk radio is our friend. Television media is NOT covering this. Also, feedback from legal eagles and/or anyone who handled the recall petitions would be invaluable. Remember, we are all in this together, so "One if by land, two if by sea!"

GO CALIFORNIA FREEPERS

[teeples]

I am in line already to sign it!

Under the law, the signatures must be gathered within 90 days of bill signing if there is to be a referendum.

The interesting thing about having the citizens of California repeal the illegal-alien driver's license law by using their referedum process would be to signal that the citizens themselves have taken over governing California via direct democracy rather than relying upon their corrupt, self-absorbed elected leaders.

More ammo. As noted in this thread that Colorado has already already passed a law rejecting the validity of California driver's licenses should Gov. Davis sign the bill. The law means California licenses could no longer be used for identification or driving in Colorado after the California bill takes effect next year. And that's ALL Californian drivers' licenses, not just the illegals'.

Count me in, Truth.

...I personally don't relish an encore of 9/11, and I'm sure most people on this forum share my sentiments. It's also apparent the elected Demon-Rats of California are so craven, and such political whores that they would literally do anything to maintain power--even compromising that little something we call NATIONAL SECURITY.

Thank you for that info. That would be plenty of time for a March dumping of this garbage.

Now go bring some more people over here! ;-)

GREAT. God love Tom Tancreado!

An interesting idea, but I think it's a reach. Still, one could hope that it might lead to a bit more responsible electorate.

[truthkeeper]

We could use you over here too.

If there would be a seal on the recall of Davis, it would be an overwhelming demand from Californians to repeal the illegal, illegal alien drivers licenses. Davis cannot again apologize for an admission of past mistakes while continuing to make bad decisions.

[NorseWood]

I would walk my community gathering signatures.

[truthkeeper]

Does anyone have the phone number to McClintock's office in Thousand Oaks? Or some number to the CA Republican Assembly? I wasn't able to find those. I want to hound everybody I can about this and then I'll post the info.

Remember, "as soon as his pen hits the paper..."

Thank you, lady.

C'mon you guys, get over here.

[Tempest]

It's called an initiative. Didn't we already know about this??? It'll just force a ballot measure.
