To: The Rhode Island State Senate and Governor Gina Raimondo
Driver's Licenses for ALL! Vote S.0391
I support the Driver's License Bill S.0391.
This bill will not only create safer roads for all residents, it will provide people access to a license and the ability to drive without fear of deportation.
This bill will not only create safer roads for all residents, it will provide people access to a license and the ability to drive without fear of deportation.
Why is this important?
We want to make clear our community's position on the current Driver's License legislation: we support the bill S.0391. This bill would provide members of our community with legal access to driver's licenses, and the ability to drive without fear of deportation.
Cities and States like Chicago, Vermont, California, New Jersey and Connecticut, to name a few, have already taken the step towards greater equality by passing similar laws that provide licenses for all, regardless of immigration status. Rhode Island has a responsibility to its immigrant families to uphold our values of fairness and safety by passing these reforms.
