Attorney General James Uthmeier[1] wants the U.S. Supreme Court[2] to weigh in on California giving driver’s licenses to people who are in the United States illegally.
“We filed a lawsuit against California on behalf of Florida to hold them accountable for the carnage that their sanctuary illegal immigration policies have caused to states like Florida across the country,” Uthmeier told Sean Hannity[3].
This is the state’s latest move in the wake of Harjinder Singh[4] being accused of making an illegal U-turn in August that led to triple homicide charges, which led to Lt. Gov. Jay Collins[5] taking a charter flight to California to extradite the former long-distance truck driver.
“We can combat illegal immigration, but we still suffer when Gavin Newsom and liberals on the West Coast allow these illegals in. They encourage them, enable them to get these driver’s licenses, and then they cross the country and ultimately take lives,” Uthmeier said.
Singh is accused of a forcible felony for killing three Floridians in St. Lucie County with an 18-wheeler on the Florida Turnpike, after he turned around his vehicle amid questions as to whether he could read the sign restricting turnarounds to emergency vehicles. He faces three counts of vehicular homicide and manslaughter.
Uthmeier ultimately holds California responsible.
“They are knowingly aware of the dangers that their policies cause. They know that by giving people these truckers’ licenses who don’t speak English, they’re putting families on the road in jeopardy. Lives are lost, they know about it, they need to be held responsible.”
