undocumented immis to get driver's licenses in Virginia

[Lonelyloner]

RICHMOND, Va. (WSET) -- Governor Ralph Northam held a virtual signing Monday to celebrate the legislation that gives the Department of Motor Vehicles permission to issue driver privilege cards to undocumented immigrants living in Virginia beginning January 1, 2021.

 

In February, the Virginia Senate passed legislation introduced by Senators Scott Surovell and Jennifer Boysko that would allow immigrants to possess a driver's license "regardless of legal status."

Previously, Virginia law required anyone applying for a driver's license to provide proof of a "legal presence" to show you are legally authorized to be in the country.

 

The new law removes the citizenship and legal presence requirements for obtaining a driver's license or special identification card.

"In addition to giving members of Virginia's immigrant community the ability to legally drive a vehicle, this driver privilege card legislation will make obtaining valid identification accessible to all Virginia residents, regardless of their immigration status," Gov. Northam wrote Monday.

Sen. Surovell and Del. Kathy Tran, who introduced the House version of the bill, joined Northam during the call.

This bill now goes into effect on January 1, 2021.

WBOC reports that cardholders will not be allowed to vote nor will the “driving privilege card” be considered a REAL ID, which will be required to board an airplane or enter a federal building by October 2020.

But the ability to drive legally could change lives for hundreds of thousands of people in the state. According to a 2017 report by Migration Policy Institute, an estimated 260,000 undocumented immigrants live in Virginia.
