Budget committee OKs driver's card for illegals

11:28 PM CDT, May 28, 2009

MADISON, Wis. - Illegal immigrants in Wisconsin not eligible for driver's licenses instead could get driver's cards that would give them limited rights under action taken by a Democratic-controlled committee.

The cards could be used only to drive. Other rights given to driver's license holders, like using it to board an airplane, would not apply to those with just driver's cards.

To get a card, an immigrant would have to prove they have lived in the state for at least six months, provide proof of identity and not be eligible for a Social Security number.

Gov. Jim Doyle did not propose the cards in his original budget. It was added by the Democratic-controlled budget committee and approved on a partisan vote late Thursday night.

Wisconsin......... no need for me to visit the Badgers anymore

Buh Bye Wisconsin

It was added by the Democratic-controlled budget committee and approved on a partisan vote late Thursday night.

Was it only approved by the budget committee? If so, it would still require approval from the Wisconsin General Assembly, wouldn't it?

Asking for proof of identity from identity thieves?
What a concept!

Let's see now, one name for this "license", another name ( and stolen ss card) for working, another name for welfare, need I go on?

Found the answer to my questions. The plan still has to be approved by the Wisconsin General Assembly and signed into law.
