The Wisconsin state Assembly has passed a Republican-sponsored bill requiring proof of citizenship in order to get a driver's license. And:
Applicants from other countries would have to show proof of legal permanent or conditional residency, a valid visa, an application for asylum, valid refugee status or an application for legal permanent residency. Their licenses would expire when their residency runs out.
In other words, no Cracker Jack IDs, like Mexico's Matricula Consular card.
The bill still has to pass their Senate, and their governor is Democrat Jim Doyle, a supporter of illegal immigration.
In other news, illegal immigration supporter Rep. Pedro Colon, D-Milwaukee played the race card and Rep. Spencer Black, D-Madison backed him up.
