NEW MEXICO PASSES BAN FOR ILLEGAL ALIENS DRIVER'S LICENSES

NM HOUSE ONCE AGAIN PASSES DRIVER’S LICENSE BAN FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS

The New Mexico House of Representatives once again passed legislation to repeal a state law that allows illegal immigrants to obtain New Mexico driver’s licenses. The bill, HB 103, was passed by 45-25 with 34 Republicans and 10 Democrats and one Independent voting for the bill. This represents an increase in bipartisanship compared to last year’s attempt to de-license illegal immigrants that passed the New Mexico House but was shot down by the Senate.

According to polls, 70 percent of New Mexicans support a ban. Washington is the only other state in the country besides New Mexico that grants driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants, although Utah does issue a special driving card.
