Right-wing media really want you to believe Walz's driver's license bill was radical
In reality, Minnesota was the 19th state to grant undocumented immigrants the ability to obtain a driver's license

Right-wing media are desperately trying to paint Tim Walz as a radical liberal in the days since Vice President Kamala Harris announced the Minnesota governor as her running mate. Some have focused on Walz passing a bill in Minnesota that allowed undocumented immigrants to obtain a driver’s license, falsely claiming that Walz favors “open borders,” voting rights for undocumented immigrants, and “America last” policies. In reality, the bill plans to increase road safety and is supported by law enforcement agencies, and 18 other states have similar laws.
