Undocumented immigrants could get driver’s licenses under proposed Virginia bill
February 6, 2020
People who are in the country illegally would be able to obtain driver’s licenses in Virginia under legislation that is advancing in the state’s General Assembly.
The bill passed through the Senate’s Finance and Appropriations Committee Wednesday with 11 Democrats voting for it and five Republicans opposed.
“This is probably the No. 1 issue in the Latino community,” said the bill’s chief sponsor, Sen. Scott Surovell, a Democrat who represents parts of Fairfax, Prince William and Stafford counties. “The bill would basically allow about 300,000 people to obtain a driver’s license.”
