Massachusetts voters secure opportunity in November to end law permitting illegal aliens to get driver's license
JOSEPH MACKINNONSeptember 13, 2022
On February 16, the Democrat-controlled Massachusetts House of Representatives overrode Republican Gov. Charlie Baker's veto and approved a bill called the Work and Family Mobility Act. The bill would enable illegal aliens to acquire driver's licenses. The state Senate, similarly Democrat-controlled, signed H.4805 into law on May 5, making Massachusetts the 17th state to confer licenses on criminal non-citizens.
Although touted by some advocates as a step towards "transformational change for undocumented immigrants across the Commonwealth," that step might amount to a stumble.
In the upcoming November election, the people of Massachusetts have an opportunity to repeal the law.
As the result of an energetic campaign and a petition allegedly netting over 100,000 signatures — of which only 71,883 signatures were ultimately accepted — Massachusetts' Election Division certified the proposed referendum as Question 4 on the November 8 ballot. Only 40,120 signatures were required.
