In the past, Florida once offered Drivers Licenses to all residents without proof of status in this country. Immigrants whose licenses have expired since the Patriot Act in 2001 made requirements harder to obtain a license.We want to have an advocacy organization from a state that does offer driver licenses for all to explain how it is possible to use their vote. Join us Monday September 26 to discuss why immigration justice is a call to bring back the driver license for all.
