02.13.08 "REAL ID LITE" PASSES HOUSE. |
Immediately after passing a resolution to refer mandatory government
health care to the voters, the Oregon House today passed SB
1080, a "driver's license" bill intended to move Oregon
closer to compliance with the Federal mandates for a national
ID card.
Sold as an effort to prevent illegals from getting driver's
licenses, it places additional burdens and privacy invasions
on Americans. Numerous other states have refused to capitulate
to the demands of the Department of Homeland Security and subject
their citizens to the heavy hand of the Federal Government,
but in Oregon, the only legislators to oppose the bill did so
because they did not want to inconvenience people who are here
in violation of the law.
The bill requires that you surrender a Social Security Number
to apply for a driver's license, and unlike current law, makes
no exception for Americans who have chosen not to accept a Federal
ID number.
Every single Republican voted in favor of the bill. The Democrats
who opposed it, for the sake of illegal's, not for the protection
of Americans were:
Barnhart
Bonamici
Buckley
Cannon
Dingfelder
Gelser
Greenlick
Holvey
Kotek
MacPherson
Nathanson
Nolan
Rosenbaum
