House OKs Citizenship Check for Licenses

House OKs Citizenship Check for Licenses

The furriner-haters win round one:

"Republicans pushed the measure through on a 261-161 vote despite protests from governors and state motor vehicle departments that it would be too costly and would require them to take on the role of immigration officers.

The bill is expected to have more difficulty in the Senate, where several Republican lawmakers have said they want it considered as part of a broader immigration package."


If I'm reading this right, it means the only hope here is a split between Republicans who hate furriners a lot vs. Republicans who REALLY hate furriners a lot...
