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!

Just let me know ASAP.....even my delusional Democrat friends are mad about this one! I'll get 100 signatures in a day. My son goes to a conservative University in OC and will get 100's in a day....My son who is 18 in high school will have his right minded friends sign who have registered. We're ready, truthkeeper!

I read on another thread that just over 300k signatures are needed for this sort of initiative. That's less than half of the signatures required for the Recall. I think we'd get 300k signatures in a week.

Why Californians who are serious about saving the State want to elect somebody other than McClintock is beyond me.
He seems to be the only one with any good ideas.

We all are. Good grief, could you imagine the volume of signatures, just from this forum alone? Even the democrats I know are outraged.

Good to see McClintock is using the illegal Immigration issue in his campaign.
If he makes this a major part of his platform and emphasizes it for the remainder of the campaign, then he should be able to win it all on Oct 7th.

Well I mean Tom is no messiah on this issue. Although I'm convinced that some people here believe that he's the second coming.
It's a ballot initiative. Citizens can force this measure in general regardless of who's in office.
For someone called truthkeeper. I would think that you'd be interested in the truth over the hype.

I have zero - no, make that LESS than zero - interest in making this a Tom vs. Arnie thread. I don't think anyone does.
Please take that **** somewhere else. Some of us are actually trying to do something productive.
To: truthkeeper; Tempest
You are right, nasty was uncalled for ... lesser sentences feed unnecesary flame wars.
Peace.

I keep reading about Colorado's new law regarding California's licenses but I can't find any information about it doing web searches. Have you seen any direct links to the Colorado law itself?
I'd love to have a copy of it to go with the petition for a referendum.
