Minnesotans will be able to obtain driver's licenses regardless of their immigration status under a law signed by Gov. Tim Walz on Tuesday.The measure, which passed the DFL-majority Legislature in recent weeks, will allow an estimated 81,000 people living in the state without permanent legal status to apply for a license or state-issued ID card.
They argue it will also make roads safer by leading more motorists to take a driver's exam and obtain insurance.Republicans have expressed concerns that the IDs could make it easier for people to sign up to vote or get other government benefits they aren't eligible for due to their immigration status.Of note:
Minnesota does not require ID to vote, but a license is one option for demonstrating residency when registering.The so-called "Driver's Licenses for All" bill, which repeals a 2003 change that required proof of legal residency to apply for a license, had been debated at the Legislature for years.
