Many were surprised to find that Harris did not select Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, a candidate perceived as more moderate who might have aided Democrats in securing Pennsylvania and other crucial swing states. Instead, she chose Minnesota&#8217;s progressive Governor Tim Walz. This decision is already proving problematic as Walz&#8217;s extreme policies come under scrutiny. A particularly damaging video from March 2023 shows the far-left governor signing legislation that allows undocumented immigrants to obtain driver\u2019s licenses in Minnesota.<\/p>\n<p>According to CBS News, Walz enacted this law in March 2023, which took effect in September 2023, granting undocumented individuals easy access to legal documentation without requiring them to pass the necessary tests in English. The state offers driver tests in multiple languages including Spanish and Somali. Critics argue that this law is inherently unjust as it rewards those who violate immigration laws.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, many Minnesota Republicans expressed concerns about how this legislation\u2014alongside automatic voter registration for all driver\u2019s license holders\u2014could potentially enable undocumented immigrants to vote illegally. Although voting without citizenship remains illegal, there are doubts about how effectively Minnesota authorities could enforce such restrictions given the nature of these laws.<\/p>\n<p>The Center of the American Experiment, a public policy think tank based in Minnesota, highlighted these issues in a report from 2023. It noted that Democrats supporting both pieces of legislation dismissed worries regarding illegal immigrants registering and voting with their new licenses. The report pointed out that the driver\u2019s license bill explicitly prevents the Department of Public Safety from sharing information with other agencies like the Secretary of State&#8217;s office, hindering any cross-referencing with voter databases.<\/p>\n<p>In predominantly Democratic states like Minnesota, figures such as Walz seem intent on facilitating voting access for undocumented immigrants crossing through the southern border\u2014and now Kamala Harris has chosen him as her running mate at the forefront of this initiative<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2320097,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Tim_Walz-drivers-licenses.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33651],"tags":[37360,5469,32165,36113],"class_list":["post-2320096","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-western-journal","tag-drivers-licenses","tag-flashback","tag-illegal-immigrants","tag-tim-walz"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Tim_Walz-drivers-licenses.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2320096","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2320096"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2320096\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2320097"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2320096"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2320096"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2320096"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
