Andy Beshear on Immigration

 

 


Intimidation and fear of deportation comes out of DC

The moderator asked if the candidates would allow undocumented immigrants to have a driver's license. He said many undocumented people get pulled over for a minor issue and they don't have a license. They are afraid to go to court for fear of being deported. There are 12 states that allow undocumented driver's licenses.

Beshear's representative said he doesn't know what Andy Beshear thinks about undocumented people getting driver's licenses. He blamed the fear of deportation on the hatred and intimidation coming from Washington.

Adam Edelen admitted that he wasn't aware of the problem. "I have a campaign where we have Dreamers working on our campaign. I'm ashamed that I've never thought about the human impact on a basic level of people just trying to live their lives."
