Not everyone drives in the US. Florida clams that driving is a privilege and if you are stopped by a cop and your insurance is not up to date, they revoke your license. But the FL driver's license has NO information on it regarding the citizenship of the holder. So a FL drivers license is NOT proof of citizenship.What is? A passport, but a passport costs money, over $100 every 10 years. The idea behind this is that some cops will tell citizens that they have no proof of citizenship and they will be arrested if they try to vote. Sure, this will eventually be thrown out of court, but by the time it is thrown out, the citizen will have been denied the ability to vote.It is a BAD law and should never be passed.
