In March of 2023, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, Kamala Harris‘ vice presidential pick, signed legislation allowing for as many as 80,000 illegal aliens to obtain driver’s licenses in his state. The legislation is not the only benefit directed toward illegal aliens by Gov. Walz, as he also signed laws that grant illegals free healthcare and tuition for colleges in the state.
Walz has also claimed that local law enforcement in his state has no responsibility to enforce immigration laws, arguing: “The role of law enforcement is to enforce state and local laws, not federal immigration laws, and I strongly believe that they should not do so,” in 2018.
Giving illegal aliens driver’s licenses, a form of government-issued ID, raises concerns that they may be able to register to vote. In at least 49 states, non-citizens were supplied with voter registration forms without needing to show proof of citizenship as voter registrations take place at the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) in many states.
Non-citizens have been voting in U.S. elections unlawfully due to poor vetting, and the overwhelming majority vote for the Democrats, by as much as a three-to-one ratio.
In Washington, D.C., when the local government allowed non-citizens to vote in their local elections, just five percent registered as Republican.
