2004: H Jud Comm vote on Sanchez ID security amdt to HR 10

Voted in committee against amendment to weaken driver's license standards of H.R. 10 in 2004
Rep. ZZlastnameZZ voted against the Sanchez Amendment to H.R. 10, the 9/11 Recommendations Implementation Act. The Sanchez Amendment, offered by Rep. Linda Sanchez (D-CA), would have weakened the driver\'s license provisions of H.R. 10 that required federal standards for the issuance of driver\'s licenses and birth certificates. The driver\'s license provisions of H.R. 10 would have made it more difficult for illegal aliens to obtain driver\'s licenses, thus deterring illegal immigration. The Sanchez Amendment, to weaken these provisions, failed by a vote of 12 to 19.
