EXCERPT

California Licensing Law Produces GOP Rage in Washington

(CNSNews.com) - Political opposition to the practice of handing out driver's licenses to illegal immigrants is growing in Washington, especially in light of a new law signed by California Democratic Gov. Gray Davis on Sept. 5.

Wednesday, less than a week after signing the law granting illegal immigrants in the nation's largest state the ability to obtain driver's licenses, Davis received a letter from all 19 Republicans representing California in the U.S. House condemning the action.

The new law is an "invitation to forgery" for terrorists and criminals alike, Rep. Christopher Cox said, especially since illegal immigrants won't even have to present a Social Security number to obtain a license.

"Under this legislation, California's process will resemble that of Virginia's during the period in which seven of the Sept. 11 terrorists obtained fraudulent licenses from the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles," Cox said in a release. Until recently, Virginia did not require applicants for driver's licenses to show verifiable proof of identity.

"It is alarming that Gov. Davis has ignored the lessons that we learned from Sept. 11, 2001. It is especially cruel that he has signed this bill into law [near] the two-year anniversary of the war on terrorism," Cox added.

The letter by the 19 members of Congress calls on Davis to rescind the law, noting that the governor had vetoed similar legislation twice before signing it this year. Remarking on the similarities of the new law signed by Davis and the Virginia "loophole" used by the seven Sept. 11 terrorists, the letter went on point out that Virginia laws now require "proof of identity that can be verified," while the California legislation is moving in the "opposite" direction.

EXCERPT:

Bill on Mexican ID cards could be headed to Davis
Governor hasn't stated his position on issue

Another controversial bill supported by Latino leaders may arrive soon on the desk of Gov. Gray Davis, though the embattled politician has yet to state his position on the issue.

The state Senate this week approved Assembly Bill 522, which, if it eventually is signed by the governor, would require all public agencies to recognize Mexican consular identification cards, otherwise known as "matricula consular," that could be used by undocumented immigrants to open bank accounts and receive various services.

Opponents say the identification cards could pose a security risk because they are not fraud-proof.

Before the bill, sponsored by Assemblyman Manny Diaz, D-San Jose, can make it back to the desk of the governor, who is facing a recall election, it must clear the Assembly again; it was sent back for consideration of Senate amendments.
