According to a new report from the Sacramento Bee, over 1 Million illegal aliens living in California have driver’s licenses.
More than 1 million undocumented immigrants have received driver’s licenses, the California Department of Motor Vehicles announced Wednesday.
Assembly Bill 60, authored by then-Assemblyman Luis Alejo in 2013, required California DMV offices to issue driver’s licenses to undocumented immigrants as long as they can prove their identity and residence within the state. The law has led to 1,001,000 undocumented immigrants receiving licenses as of March 31 but doesn’t give the licensees carte blanche to drive outside of California or fly across state or federal borders.
“Immigrants are getting tested, licensed and insured and this is making our roads safer for everyone,” said Alejo, now a Monterey County supervisor, in a prepared statement. “Today, we see the law working the way it was intended to and has dramatically improved the lives of a million immigrants and their families.”
Twelve states plus Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico allow undocumented immigrants to obtain driver’s licenses. Undocumented immigrants were free to receive driver’s licenses anywhere in the U.S. until 1993, when California became the first state to restrict access and 45 others followed suit.
This is beyond ridiculous. Illegal aliens should be allowed to obtain government-issued documents because well, they are breaking the law and shouldn’t be here in the first place. Now, the report does state that these can’t be used for voting but we know that assumption can’t be trusted. A report from Judicial Watch laid out that over 1 Million illegal ballots may have been cast for Hillary in the 2016 Presidental election many likely coming in California.
