Lars:

It has been an interesting last week in the month of November when it comes to criminal aliens here in the State of Oregon.

In November 2013, county correctional facilities and jails in Clackamas, Jackson, Linn, Lincoln, Marion, NORCOR, Polk, Umatilla, Washington, and Yamhill counties incarcerated 142 criminal aliens for various crimes that had United States (U.S.) Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents had identified as possibly being in the country illegally.

Clackamas County Jail with ICE Holds (11/11/13): 13

Jackson County Jail with ICE Holds (11/11/13): 14

Lincoln County Jail with ICE Holds (11/12/13): 4

Linn County Jail with ICE Holds (11/12/13): 5

Marion County Correctional Facility with ICE Holds (11/13/13): 28

Washington County Jail with ICE Holds (11/20/13): 56

Yamhill County Jail with ICE Holds (11/20/13): 4

Total ICE Holds: 142

(1) NORCOR, an acronym for Northern Oregon Regional Correction Facilities, incarcerates prisoners for Hood River, Wasco, Sherman and Gilliam counties.

(2) Umatilla County Jail incarcerates prisoners for Umatilla and Morrow counties and Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation.

As a group, for the eleven months of 2013, the preceding 10 county correctional facilities and jails incarcerated an average of 150.91 criminal aliens per day with U.S. DHS–ICE Holds.

This week let us take your radio listeners on an in depth look on the connection of illegal aliens being permitted to drive in the state and how that may connect to those alien’s ability to distribute drugs.

First, let us look at alien driving crimes; of the 142 criminal aliens incarcerated in the preceding 10 correctional facilities and jails, 31 or 21.83 percent of those criminal aliens were charged with some type of driving crime or violation.

Second, let us look at drug crimes; of the 142 criminal aliens incarcerated in the preceding 10 correctional facilities and jails, 29 or 20.42 percent of those criminal aliens were charged with some type of drug crime.

Often connected with illegal aliens charged with driving crimes or violations are those also charged with drug crimes; one of the 29 criminal aliens or 3.45 percent was charged with some type of driving crime or violation and a drug crime.

If Lars Larson radio listeners want to help prevent illegal aliens’ ability to drive in the state, alien driving that might harm or kill Oregonians, your listeners should go to the “Protect Oregon Driver Licenses” website (http://www.protectoregondl.org/) where they can learn about the SB 833, referendum 301, campaign.

Vote against SB 833

News-Register

Letter to the Editor – Nov. 22, 2013

Letter from David Olen Cross

Vote against SB 833

After reading the Nov. 15 point / counter-point opinion pieces in the News-Register titled “Should Oregon offer driver cards to undocumented immigrants?” it appears to me Oregonians may need a short history lesson on undocumented driving in the state.

Senate Bill 833, passed by the Oregon Legislature and signed into law on May 1 by Gov. John Kitzhaber, will undermine Senate Bill 1080, legislation passed in 2008 that requires legal presence in the state to obtain an Oregon driver’s license.

Ever since the passage of SB 1080, the Oregon Department of Motor Vehicles has been required by Oregon law (House Bill 3624) to provide an annual report on the number of persons driving without licenses or insurance.

In a report filed on Jan. 1, DMV Administrator Tom McClellan declared: “Four years after implementing a legal-presence requirement in Oregon, changes in driver licensing requirements have not had a major impact on the rate of unlicensed and uninsured driving.”

Answer to the history lesson: Since the passage of SB 1080, there is no documentation available to tell us whether more people legally or not legally present in the state are driving unlicensed and uninsured.

Oregonians should realize by now that there was no real justification for the legislature and governor to make SB 833 state law this year, a law allowing those without documentation to obtain access to an ersatz-driver’s license called a driver card.

Oregon registered voters concerned about the real public safety of the residents of the state should reject the misguided idea that issuing driver cards to the undocumented will make driving on the state’s roads safer. They should vote no on SB 833, referendum 301, when the issue is placed before them in 2014.

Driver cards for undocumented don’t make roads safer

The Bulletin Local Columns
Driver cards for undocumented don’t make roads safer

By David Olen Cross

Published: November 17. 2013 4:00AM PST

Senate Bill 833, passed by the Oregon Legislature and signed into law on May 1 by Gov. John Kitzhaber will undermine Senate Bill 1080, legislation passed in 2008 that requires legal presence in the state to obtain an Oregon driver’s license.

Ever since the passage of SB 1080, the Oregon Department of Motor Vehicles has been required by Oregon law (House Bill 3624) to provide an annual report on the number of persons driving without licenses or insurance.

In a report filed on Jan. 1 by DMV Administrator Tom McClellan, he stated: “Four years after implementing a legal presence requirement in Oregon, changes in driver licensing requirements have not had a major impact on the rate of unlicensed and uninsured driving.”

Translation: There is no current documentation available since the passage of SB 1080 that more people legally or not legally present in the state are driving unlicensed and uninsured.

Oregonians should realize by now there was no justification for the Legislature and governor to make SB 833 state law this year, allowing those without documentation to obtain access to a pseudo-driver’s license — called a driver card.

Looking back to 2012: When Oregonians for Immigration Reform, opponents to the issuance of driver’s licenses to the undocumented, found out about proposed legislation that would change the legal presence requirement, OFIR asked to participate in what was called the “Governor’s Driver License Task Force.”

After repeated requests to the governor’s office asking to participate or attend Driver License Task Force meetings, according to OFIR, its leadership was told by the governor’s state capital office staff “that staff knew nothing about the existence of a Driver License Task Force.”

Not believing the Driver License Task Force didn’t exist, OFIR leadership filed two public information requests addressed to the governor’s office requesting the names of Task Force members and meeting minutes.

The governor’s legal counsel denied both public information requests. An appeal was filed and that appeal was rejected by the attorney general’s office. Exclusion of public input continued even after SB 833 was introduced during the regular 2013 state legislative session.

To avoid scrutiny or critiques of the legislation, pro-SB 833 legislators dominated, with their own testimony, most of the time they made available for public oral testimony on the legislation. Before hearing from citizens who had signed up to speak in opposition, the Senate committee chair invited lengthy oral testimony from an alleged undocumented mother accompanied by her small child, a political tactic known as “baby waving.”

It gets worse yet; to avoid further public scrutiny of SB 833, the senators and representatives controlling the legislative process moved the legislation from the Senate directly to the House floor for a debate and vote — side-stepping the normal procedure of hearings in both chambers.

To open up the democratic process to citizens shunned by the pro-SB 833 cabal in the governor’s office and state Legislature, State Reps. Kim Thatcher and Sal Esquivel, along with Richard LaMountain, vice president of OFIR, stepped forward and placed their names on Oregon referendum 301. The referendum campaign being successful would stop SB 833 from becoming state law on Jan. 1.

With guidance from OFIR and the Protect Oregon Driver Licenses Committee, Oregonians across the state worked together and gathered 70,973 referendum signatures that were turned into the state elections office by the Oct. 4 deadline.

On Oct. 18, after the first statistical check by state election officials of 1,000 referendum petition signees, election officials validated the signatures of 58,291 registered Oregon voters, more than the minimum number of signatures the referendum campaign needed to put SB 833 before the state’s voters in November 2014.

The 70,973 registered Oregon voters who signed the referendum 301 petition did their homework. These Oregonians understand there simply are no data to back up proponents’ claims that making SB 833 a state law will make Oregon’s roads any safer.
