Indiana gov. Mitch Daniels on immigration: not good, but not enough information for full picture - 2/26/2010

Indiana governor Mitch Daniels is being mentioned as a fiscal conservative, policy wonk Republican candidate for president in 2012. Like most "fiscal conservatives", he appears to support massive/illegal immigration despite the costs involved and despite how it gives even more power to those on the other side from him. There doesn't appear to be much of a paper trail on him, but mos...

Mass. Rep. Pam Richardson of Framingham: let illegal aliens vote (+driver's licenses & in-state tuition) - 4/07/2009

... video she also comes out for drivers licenses and in-state tuition for illegal aliens. She's obviously not too bright, and a good questioner could help block her future political career by really pressing her on these issues, especially the one relating to college benefits. If anyone is in the area, go to one of her public appearances and ask her a localized version of the question in the DR...

... only 33% support even limited drivers licenses, and only 20% support in-state tuition for illegal aliens (32% favor it for the children of illegal aliens; that shouldn't be an issue except as yet another indication of the problems with automatically granting citizenship to the children of illegal aliens).

WaPo admits: Maryland driver's licenses are incredibly insecure, open to fraud (advocating two-tier system?) - 3/29/2009

When even the Washington Post notices a problem relating to immigration, you know it's a real problem. Thus it is that NC Aizenman and Lisa Rein offer "Easy-to-Get Licenses Expose Md. to Fraud/Out-of-State Illegal Immigrants Exploit Rules" (link). The WaPo appears to be trying to get Maryland to pass a Real ID-compliant two-tier licensing scheme under which illegal aliens would get ...

Barack Obama reiterates support for driver's licenses for illegal aliens (Carolyn Lochhead) - 1/28/2008

Carolyn Lochhead of the San Francisco Chronicle offers this: Sen. Barack Obama easily won the African American vote in South Carolina, but to woo California Latinos, where he is running 3-to-1 behind rival Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, he is taking a giant risk: spotlighting his support for the red-hot issue of granting driver's licenses to illegal immigrants. It's a huge issue for La...

Michael J. Feeney of the AP offers "Immigrants Denied Licenses to File Suit Against Md. MVA".
