Every DMV office in the state will now offer standard licenses to undocumented residents after an enhancement to Colorado's Road and Community Safety Act.
Gov. Jared Polis announces that all 36 Colorado DMV offices will now offer licenses to undocumented immigrants.Undocumented immigrants face challenges every day in the United States, especially when it comes to obtaining a driver's license. Colorado lawmakers have been working to change that., or the Colorado Road and Community Safety Act — a law that allowed undocumented immigrants and international students to obtain a driver's license, learner's permit or ID card.
According to Polis, more than 200,000 immigrants have secured driver's licenses between 2013 and the present, making the roads safer and shrinking insurance premiums. SB13-251, he said, "cleared the way for credentials to be issued to 200,000 Coloradans, who, because of failures at the federal level, do not have documentation.U.S. Senator John Hickenlooper, who signed the original bill as governor in 2013, issued a statement on Friday from Washington, D.C.
Nancy Margarita Díaz Esápite says that expanding the number of offices offering licenses to undocumented drivers is a huge benefit to her community in Lamar.Getting licenses to more drivers will"help improve the safety of our roads" and increase the number of insured drivers, according to Polis.
Rodriguez was part of the I Drive Coalition advocacy group, which will continue to advise state lawmakers on ways to improve the non-citizen driver's license law. She's also part of Grupo Mayas Pueblo, which supports the immigrant community in Pueblo. She expects that the new change by the Department of Motor Vehicles will help the"influx of immigrants seeking asylum, as well."
