Yup, that person driving around Fairfax county with a DC license plate could be an illegal immigrant driving with a valid DC license.

D.C. Mayor Vincent C. Gray signed a measure into law Monday that will allow illegal immigrants to apply for driver’s licenses next year, calling the privilege a “civil rights issue” for those in the country illegally but who still need to get to jobs, classes and houses of worship.

The District’s new law, which will take effect in May, will align the nation’s capital with a handful of mostly Democratic-leaning states, including Maryland, where illegal immigrants can begin applying for licenses in January.

DC mayor Vincent Gray signs bill allowing people in US illegally to get driver’s licenses

WASHINGTON — Starting next year, people living in the nation’s capital who don’t have legal permission to reside in the United States will be able to get driver’s licenses.

Democratic Mayor Vincent Gray signed a bill on Monday that would allow the District of Columbia’s Department of Motor Vehicles to issue licenses to people who can’t prove their immigration status. It would take effect May 1 unless Congress intervenes, which isn’t considered likely.

“The Congress and the White House allegedly are debating immigration reform,” Gray said Monday. “We haven’t seen much movement in that regard, and I’m really proud to be part of the effort to bring about immigration reform here in the District of Columbia.”

The bill creates a two-tiered system of licenses in order to comply with federal law. The licenses for immigrants who can’t prove their legal status would be marked as invalid for federal purposes such as boarding airplanes or entering federal buildings.

The D.C. Council initially approved a more sweeping bill that would have allowed those in the country illegally to obtain the same licenses as citizens. But the Gray administration warned that such a law could potentially invalidate all district licenses for federal purposes, forcing hundreds of thousands of citizens to get new, enhanced licenses or produce a passport to board domestic flights.

The council ultimately backed off that proposal and unanimously passed a bill that creates what officials called a “limited-purpose” driver’s license. Council Chairman Phil Mendelson said the debate about giving the same license to everyone threatened to obscure the main purpose of the bill, which was to ensure that more district residents can drive legally.

“The limited-purpose driver’s license really isn’t that distinguishable” from a standard license, said Mendelson, a Democrat.

Of the 10 states that allow people without legal permission to live in the United States to get driver’s licenses, only New Mexico and Washington state give the same license to everyone. And the licensing requirements in those states were established before the approval of the federal Real ID law, which puts strict limits on the sort of identification that can be used for federal purposes.

How can this be a "civil rights issue", when driving is not a right? Is there a reason that they can't get to their jobs, classes and houses of worship on Metro? Or they could walk. They made some pretty elaborate transportation plans to get into this country, but they can't get down the street to their (illegally acquired) job without a license?

Foolsmacker, where have you been brother? Haven't seen you in a long time.

They drive anyway , law or no law. The big issue is how to get them to buy insurance, which they will never do. Perhap Gerry Connolly can pass a bill where the government also pays for their car insurance. Gerrycare.

And we will also be driving around Montgomery County, PG County, Arlington County, Frederick County, and a thousand others. Be very afraid

LOL true enough, that's probably next.

I can't drive because I lost my job and can't pay child support, yet these illegals can get a license and drive legally?

It's getting re-goddamn-diculous!

You can't work at McDonalds?

So how do they get it? How do they qualify for it? Do they just go to the DMV and tell them they're an illegal? How do you prove that you can't prove your legal status?

So? When one hits you, file a suit against DC and sue the shit out of them.

I guess that's about it. The DC license cannot be used as identification for any federal purpose.

I guess you just tell them your name and they give you a DC license.

Seems to me that would be an easy scam for FFX illegals to do to get a valid drivers license.

That would be a good scam for anyone to get a license even if they are suspened with a DWI or Reckless. How the hell are they going to prove ID?

We feel out thee forms and we get the papeers to driving the car in yur pretty towns. Very eesy. Just pay the man many dollars.

This might be a shocker to you nimrods but Maryland has been giving illegals licenses since the model T rolled out. All the illegal beaners in Manassas have MD tags for this reason.

Most wonderful. As long as the illegals take the required driving safety courses, the roads will be safer for all Americans.

Hey look at me Amigos! Ariba!!!

This seems like it would be way too easy to scam them into giving you a license.

I pop in from time to time to drop some wisdom. I don't get to spend as much time here as I'd like to, due to other commitments.

How can I get for illegal people dc driving license. What kind of paper requarments.when it will be start.let me know details.please

A license is nothing, its insurance they will never get. Not because they cant but because they wont. So next time one hits your car thank a liberal that you get to pay for the deductible damages. Illegals are on public assistance so buying insurance is the last thing on their to do list.
