Connors, Rumpf & Gove: Keep Pressure on to Stop Murphy from Giving Driver’s Licenses to Illegal Aliens

The 9th District legislative delegation is warning residents that Governor Phil Murphy remains committed to advancing legislation that would permit illegal aliens to receive New Jersey driver’s licenses.

Senator Christopher Connors, Assemblyman Brian Rumpf and Assemblywoman DiAnne Gove urged residents opposed to this proposal to sign the online petition they launched to stop this and other efforts by Governor Murphy to establish New Jersey as a sanctuary state.

Connors, Rumpf and Gove issued the following statement:

“Supporters of New Jersey becoming a sanctuary state just got a big boost from Governor Murphy who recently described legislation to allow illegal aliens to obtain driver’s licenses a ‘no brainer.’ Coming straight from the Executive Branch, this sends a chilling message to taxpaying citizens living in this country legally who are being sold out by elected officials and special interest groups hell-bent on turning New Jersey into the California of the east coast.

“It should be a ‘no brainer’ that only legal citizens are eligible to obtain a driver’s license.

“Individuals who drive for a living now face the alarming prospect of competition for their jobs from illegal aliens willing to work for less. The opportunity to get a driver’s license will only entice more illegal aliens to locate to New Jersey, placing greater strain on the state’s already stretched resources, including vital health care and education services.

“More than 21,000 people have already signed our petition to stop New Jersey from becoming a sanctuary state. That is a powerful and unmistakably clear message that the State Legislature and Governor’s Office must understand and accept when considering the very serious economic, legal and fiscal implications involved.

“If you haven’t signed the petition, now is the time to make your voice heard before it’s too late because, in Trenton, no law is too extreme for the controlling interests.”

  1. we need to show compassion, remember the Torah says to love thy stranger as you too were strangers, many of these people are the parents of American citizens who are hardworking and contribute to our towns diversity, maybe one of their children will be US president. just like we want people to show us compassion we must show it to others.

    • So if these people cause an accident who will pay for the damage. Since there are not legal then they definitely don’t have insurance. We the hard working LEGAL people will be stuck covering the costs. This is not a good idea at all.

      • You literally proved the point of the governor. If we get these people to have licenses and require them to buy insurance, there is protection if they get in an accident. Currently, they drive uninsured and unlicensed, which means you are out of luck if they hit you. Congrats on having your first progressive, liberal thought!

        • it is not progressive to show compassion to hard working refuses and asylum seekers who seek to contribute to society, it is common decency just like it is common decency to have a shelter opened for the unhoused.

  2. Drivers licenses are the first step next step will be voting rights, that’s the Democrats plan.
    These people have no regard for our laws. Allowing them to drive just tells them it’s ok to break our laws. What about the people that try to come here legally and wait years and pay a lot of money for the papers and the Democrats tell them they are fools climb over the fence and you get to go to the front of the line and get lots of free stuff.
