New Hampshire Senator Judd Gregg is Cosponsoring a Resolution Condemning Driver’s Licenses for Illegals

 I know how ludicrous it sounds that we actually have to have the senate vote on a resolution such as this, but that is the world we live in today. If you break the law you are rewarded for it. New Hampshire senator Judd Gregg has stepped up on the issue of handing out driver’s licenses to illegal aliens, and is cosponsoring a bill condemning the proposed practice.

 “Like most Americans, I believe common sense would dictate that someone who is here illegally should not be allowed to obtain a driver’s license. It is irresponsible for states to loosely hand out these documents without checking that the recipients are here lawfully. This poses a national security risk, encourages illegal immigration, and is an affront to our sensibilities about the rule of law. Over the years, I’ve supported legislation to make sure that illegal immigrants cannot obtain driver’s licenses, and I hope this resolution sends a clear message to the states that they must act responsibly.”

 77% of Americans oppose handing out driver’s licenses to illegals but that hasn’t stopped New York governor, Elliot Spitzer from trying. It hasn’t stopped Hillary Clinton from saying she understands why Spitzer and other governors would do it. Hillary said she would support handing out drivers licenses to illegals but if they commit a crime they should be deported, forgetting conveniently that the committed a crime by being here in the first place.

 It is good to know we have a senator here in New Hampshire, Judd Gregg, who is vehemently opposed to this whole idea. At the same time it is sort of discouraging that we have reached this point in our country. The politically correct, appeasement, everyone is a victim mentality has crept into society to the point that senators have to pass a resolution condemning governors for trying to hand out rights and priveledges reserved for American citizens and legal residents to illegals who don’t belong here, and frankly, are criminals just by being here in the first place.
