Victor Valley legislators Wednesday blasted a bill passed by the California Senate that would give driver’s licenses to illegal aliens.


The California Real ID Act, or SB 60, would require the state Department of Motor Vehicles to issue driving-only licenses to those who can’t prove their legal status. It would also require the state to issue residents Real IDs for federal identification purposes.


The driving-only license would have clear marks indicating it is a non-Real ID and could not be used as identification to board a plane or enter a federal building. It would not change an applicant’s immigration status.


Proponents of the bill argue it would make the roads safer by ensuring all drivers are trained, tested, licensed and insured.

What a MESS And it is going to get worse

it's insane unprincipled legislation undermining the rule of law! That's how anarchy starts.

Proponents of the bill argue it would make the roads safer by ensuring all drivers are trained, tested, licensed and insured.

This LIE is almost as popular as They do jobs Americans won't do.

And they get insurance for 30 days, only Then they take their chances on the roadways and if in an accident they will drive off or exit their vehicle and run from the accident they are in.

And the vehicle will be licensed to someone else not even driving it when the accident happened

Well all I can say is it would be an easy way to identify who the illegals are, just incase we can ever get them to enforce our laws!

It is just another round for "one Bill Gil" to try and honor a promise he made to his dead wife!

Well, looks like this is the last time around for Gil........

Won't pass......
