Mass migration bringing in millions of potential voters

My teenage son is a law-abiding American citizen. To obtain his driver’s permit this year, he brought his birth certificate, Social Security card, passport and verification that he completed an approved driver’s school course. It took a halfdozen trips back and forth between various government agencies to clear all the paperwork hurdles.

Every American citizen who has navigated such bureaucratic hurdles at a local Department of Motor Vehicles should be outraged at the open borders spectacles in New Jersey and New York this week.

Hundreds of illegal immigrants and advocates took to the streets and marched on the statehouse in Trenton, New Jersey, demanding driver’s licenses without having to produce any citizenship papers. Both the New Jersey Assembly and the Senate approved the measure on Monday while defiant, entitled protesters screamed “Si, se pudo!” (Yes, we can!) and “Licencias, ya!” (Licenses now!).

In New York, thousands of illegal immigrants similarly flooded DMVs statewide to take advantage of the new “Green Light” law, which allows them to obtain licenses by simply presenting foreign consular IDs. The Mexican matricula consular card, as I’ve long reported, is a notoriously fraud-prone document with little to no procedures to verify identity.

Instead of a Social Security card, which American citizens have to present, illegal immigrants can just write up an affidavit stating that they don’t have a Social Security card.

So, where’s ICE? Remember: New Jersey and New York are sanctuary jurisdictions that brazenly harbor and shelter illegal immigrants. The Green Light law explicitly bars ICE from having access to DMV records. As the Center for Immigration Studies points out, the legislation now creates a situation in which “a foreign nation, Canada, freely shares its DMV information with CBP and ICE,” while “the state of New York will refuse to do so.”

Our country’s election integrity is under siege by foreign influence. Mass migration is bringing in millions of potential new voters who support gun control, socialized medicine, expanded welfare, free speech restrictions and resistance to immigration enforcement.

In New York, about 265,000 illegal immigrants are projected to obtain driver’s licenses over the next three years. Fifteen states plus the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico confer driving privileges on illegal immigrants. Latino groups, the Mexican government, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the Charles Koch-funded Libre Initiative all banded together to secure these “America last” legislative victories.

Next step: Out of the shadows... and into the voting booths? The special interests of “Open Borders, Inc.” on the left and right all vehemently deny illegal alien and noncitizen voter fraud happens. But it does.

And in New Jersey just two years ago, the Public Interest Legal Foundation revealed after a sixmonth review of New Jersey county voter registration files that thanks to the federal Motor Voter system, “616 admitted and officially recorded noncitizens in 11 counties engaged on some level with the NJ voter registration system;” “nine percent of aliens self-reporting their status also cast ballots prior;” and “75 percent of noncitizens were invited to register while receiving driver’s licenses.”

Imagine if American citizens took to the streets to stop the spread of driver’s licenses for people here illegally in numbers that matched the open borders hordes in New York and New Jersey.
