Voted in committee against amendment to eliminate document security provision from H.R. 10 in 2004
Rep. ZZlastnameZZ voted against the Jackson Lee Amendment to H.R. 10, the 9/11 Recommendations Implementation Act. The Jackson Lee Amendment would have eliminated the provision in H.R. 10 that stated that passports are the only form of foreign-issued IDs that are acceptable forms of identification to obtain a divers license. The Jackson Lee Amendment would have facilitated illegal immigration by allowing insecure forms of identification such as consular-issued ID cards that are often used by illegal aliens to be acceptable forms of identification for obtaining driver's licenses and other benefits. The Jackson Lee Amendment failed by a vote of 15-20.
