It’s official Florida to cut recognizing certain drivers’ licenses from 3 New England states.
It has been officially confirmed that certain classes of driver’s licenses from five states, with three exclusively in New England, is to be effectively stopped from being valid under new immigration law.
The bill prohibits the issuance of a license to anyone who is unable to provide proof of having acquired by law to live in the United States and specifies that a state driver’s license granted exclusively to undocumented immigrants is invalid in Florida at large.
“Someone who is in our country illegally and has violated our laws should not possess a government-issued ID which allows them access to state-funded services and other privileges afforded to lawful residents,” DeSantis said in a statement.
Advocates have long argued that providing driver’s licenses to undocumented immigrants increases public safety.
The Florida government has officially declared and even issued a statement.
“The truth of the matter is people are driving back-and-forth from work to home,” Werner Oyanadel, executive director of Connecticut’s Latino and Puerto Rican Affairs Commission, said in 2014, as the state opened license applications to undocumented immigrants. He said the difference under the new law would be that those drivers are properly trained. Like other drivers, they must register their vehicles and prove they have purchased insurance.
The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles published a list of out-of-state license classes that are invalid in Florida:
