One of the problems with this legislation in terms of making it easier for people to possibly vote is the threshold of admittance to the registration rolls. What we are saying now is that when a person signs up to get a drivers license. they sign up to vote. Let me assure the Members that the headlines just recently announced that an illegal alien who cost a very bright and talented lawyer the Attorney General position had a drivers license. And more and more people who want a drivers license. citizen or not. eligible to vote or not. are going to go through this process. You tell me whether they want to identify themselves. stick out like a sore thumb. let people know they are concerned with the way in which they have to get a drivers license by publicly admitting they do not want to register to vote. A number of illegal aliens will end up with a drivers license and on the voting rolls. Whether they vote or not is a moot point. What happens is you discredit an honest persons belief that their vote counts as much as another.
Identified stereotypes
Illegal aliens will fraudulently obtain drivers licenses and register to vote.
