4/28/04-A bill that would have allowed illegal immigrants in Florida to get drivers licenses will have to wait until next year.
Sen. Rudy Garcia, R-Hialeah, this month withdrew his proposal from the Senate Transportation Committee to license illegal immigrants after law-enforcement officials around the state raised security concerns. Garcia said he would propose studying the issue before next year’s legislative session begins.
S1360 was dismissed by sheriffs who questioned whether other countries could provide acceptable criminal background checks.
