Illegal or not, it doesnt matter, what matter is that theyre already here, and been here for long enough, why do people keep categorizing them and themseleves, were all the same. America was founded on its diversity. If they are able to work legally it only means they will be paying TAXES ALSO. its no different from someone who is here legally, and if they were to be able to get a job, WELL, if they were to get job, maybe they are just looking harder then some americans! plus, first come first serve. aint about whose illegal and whose not, theyre not all bad people. YES some can speak english, smarter than some actually. Even people who are here legally, cant get their life together, so QUIT complaining. Its long overdue, I think its about time America took care of this problem and help those who are eligible to actually be here. And if they were given a rightful way to citizenship maybe things can finally go right and they can actually start doing AMERICAN stuff like pay taxes, so quit complaining about that. You just cant expect people to do something you have given them the right to. It doesnt make sense!?? Be open minded, quit thinking your thee only ones paying everything. They can help too if america let them. I find most illegal immigrants more motivated to get somewhere in life then people who actually live here legally, .

Congress is gonna pass immigration reform this year whether you like it or not, and when that happens they will get a license anyways this bill will just probably be useless one year from now, so quit whining about it

You guys are missing the point of this law. Stop questioning if they are legal or illegal. What matters is that these people will still be driving whether this law passes or not, so why not required them to have auto insurance just like everyone else driving. Think about it? Wouldn't you feel safer driving knowing everyone will be most likely insured and properly trained to drive?

How are they going to be able to drive and understand street signs when most of them don't even speak English, let alone can read or understand it? Aren't they the reason we have to push one for English?

This State is going in the toilet!!!!! Just wish there were more jobs else where!! Time to start looking. If all the people left that had jobs here, California would be left with all illegals! good luck Ca.

Are we going to license their cars and pay their insurance also? Heck why not just buy them all a new car while we're at it, we don't want to wreck an old beat up piece of junk while they are driving around drunk on the booze we furnished them with the EBT cards and yes there are ways to do it!!!!!

georgie hold your breath alot of states do charge tax on groc. Illinois is 1 of them. Calif wouldn't be hurting so much if they would get rid of ALL illegals. Welfare would go down, more jobs for legal mpeople, scholls wouldn't be over crowded.
