Florida will no longer accept driver's licenses issued by some other U.S. states to immigrants living in the country illegally under a law signed by Governor Ron DeSantis as he seeks the 2024 Republican presidential nomination.
I don’t think it’s great that our system to become an American is so backlogged and slow. It shouldn’t take 20 years to become one. Maybe five at the most.
But saying that, we do have a major illegal immigrant problem, and it’s really frustrating that the left (which I am part of) refuses to admit its a problem. I don’t think we should have a large swath of people coming in illegally and gaining the same rights that citizens have, and it sucks that legal us citizens pay the price in higher fees.
Like, it shouldn’t be an all-or-nothing thing. We should have strict boarders and an easier path to citizenship. Instead we’re putting patches and bandaid over the problem and it will never get fixed.
