If States require you to be a citizen and they do not have any penalty. criminal or civil. it appears that there is no teeth in it. But according to the letters that I have been receiving from the States that endorse or support this legislation. and those who have instituted some type of motorvoter and maybe basically the same aspects of this bill. they have seen no increase in fraud. no increase in those trying to register that are noncitizens. In fact. they find it very palatable. because you have to give all this information to get a drivers license and. normally. then you attest that you are a citizen. and they take your picture. It seems to me that that is quite a deterrent. rather than getting into general parts of this complaint. investigations. authority in investigations. and you go to the Attorney General. administrative law judges. an order requiring compliance. and then you have a hearing and then the conduct of how the hearing is held. the issuance of the orders. cease and desist orders with civil money penalties. administrative appellate review. judicial review. enforcement of orders. and you continue and continue to put all this weight on local officials. when they now have the ability.
