Massachusetts governor vetoes bill requiring state to provide driver's licenses to illegal immigrants; legislature promises override

Massachusetts Republican Governor Charlie Baker vetoed a bill Friday that would have allowed illegal immigrants in the state to obtain driver's licenses, but the Democrat-dominated legislature promised a swift override of the veto in spite of Baker's warnings about the bill.

Both chambers of the Massachusetts legislature passed the bill by overwhelming margins, with the House voting 120-36 in favor of the bill. The Senate approved the bill by a lopsided 32-8 margin.

Nonetheless, Baker vetoed the bill and issued a statement condemning at least one obvious consequence of the bill. "I cannot sign this legislation because it requires the Registry of Motor Vehicles to issue state credentials to people without the ability to verify their identity... Consequently, a standard Massachusetts driver's license will no longer confirm that a person is who they say they are," Baker said.

So, If I went to Mass, claimed to be someone I am not, I could get a new ID under this?

This illustrates just "how blue" the state of Massachusetts is.
As in... "it's never coming back" to the center.

If the legislature has the power to override the governor's veto (not sure how that works in MA), looks like the final outcome is a foregone conclusion.
