Illinoisās Democrat governor, J.B. Pritzker, is about to sign a new bill into law that will allow illegal immigrants to become driving instructors. From Peoriaās NBC affiliate:
"A proposal thatās passed both chambers would allow some immigrants to become driving instructors in Illinois. In the state, non U.S. citizens can apply for a special drivers license called a Temporary Visitor Drivers License or TVDL."
You might ask, āWhere did that TVDL come from?ā Weāve had a Democrat-controlled state legislature since 2003, and they currently have supermajorities in both chambers. Except for a single-term RINO governor in 2015ā18, weāve also had 100% Democrat governors since 2003.The Democratsā attitudes about illegal immigration have āevolvedā considerably since Clinton, Obama, and Schumer talked tough about it 20ā30 years ago. If Trump were to read any one of those speeches out loud on the air tonight, heād be called a racist.
In June 2023, Pritzker even started allowing illegal immigrants to get standard driversā licenses, phasing out TVDLs, which had become a āScarlet Letterā for illegals.

Notice the careful use of terms like ānoncitizen,ā āundocumented immigrant,ā or just āimmigrant.ā Nowhere do we see āillegal.ā But thatās what these code terms mean. Notice also the deep concern about āstigma,ā āincidents of discrimination,ā and ācreating more equitable systems.ā
In 2019, Tom Homan described DUIs by illegal immigrants as a āpublic safety issueā:
āTen thousand people a year die from DUIs, twenty eight people a day die from DUIs,ā said Homan. āIād rather put an illegal alien in jail for DUI than white-collar bank fraud. It isnāt about if itās a felony or misdemeanor, itās about, is it a public safety threat and is it threatening American citizens? DUIs, are you kidding me? Thatās a public safety issue.ā

White applicants for SNAP benefits (āfood stampsā) are told theyāll get their SNAP debit cards in the mail in 10ā14 business days ā in other words, up to three weeks. But Latino applicants, who rarely know any English at all, frequently walk into the public aid office with three pieces of paper and walk out happily with an āemergencyā SNAP card. So they get same-day service.
I also had extensive opportunities to observe English as a Second Language (ESL) teaching in action, at Chicagoās special school for children of illegal immigrants: Rodolfo Lozano Bilingual Academy, which is of course named for a socialist Latino political figure from Chicagoās past. As I previously wrote, Lozano has the lionās share of speech therapists and speech pathologists employed by the Chicago Public Schools, because⦠equity. After all, they have to pronounce English correctly. And I concede that for any immigrant, that isnāt easy.
But they donāt teach āEnglish as a second languageā at Lozano. They teach just enough words of English to get by in a city like Chicago. The actual day-to-day lessons are given in Spanish, because āitās just easier that way.ā
Commentary:
In the U.S. a driverās license is the standard identification document. With this policy, criminals can just claim to be illegals and get a new ID under a new name and DOB. Itās crazy.
Democrats have not changed their stand in 200 years. They wanted cheap labor with slavery then; they want cheap labor with illegals now. They still need someone to mow their lawn. Today's illegal is the Democrats ticket to wealth.
Never will understand the mindset of the left. It is as if they either never hear of human nature or they think their ācompassionā will overcome basic human nature.
We currently have approximately 67 million people in the U.S. on programs we collectively call welfare. So, the left idea is to bring in 10-30 people to add to the welfare state?
Human nature dictates that at least 70% of the illegals will never ābecomeā productive members of our society. And why should they? Illegals now get free housing, food, education. medical care and money to spend. What is the incentive to overcome basic human nature that says: You do it, I will sit back and watch?
The Federal gov't must begin prosecuting sanctuary area politicians for aiding illegal aliens. Do I misread the federal law that it is illegal to help or harbor an illegal alien?
Yet the DoJ has not done anything against these sanctuary areas and the NGO's that staff them.
