Illegal Immigrants File Suit against Oregon Authorities over Driver’s Permits Issue

Famillias En Accion and Los Ninos Cuentan are two nonprofit organizations that are now plaintiffs in a lawsuit against Oregon Governor, Kate Brown and several other Department of Transportation authorities. Apart from the two nonprofit organizations already mentioned, plaintiffs in the case also include five illegal, undocumented immigrants, as reported by numbersusa.com.

The premise of the case is that the constitutional rights of the illegal immigrants were violated when voters voted against State Bill 833 and did not allow its passage. The State Bill was essentially drafted and proposed to allow illegal immigrants to be issued drivers licenses (DL) which some immigration lawyers and OK with and others are not so sure about.

New Mexico has proven that allowing illegals to drive is a terrible idea. When New Mexico allowed this, a cottage industry was ignited and fake DLs were being sent all over the country illegally.

If you cannot understand English, should you be allowed to drive?

According to the now dead State Bill 833, the Department of Transportation authorities were required to provide driver’s licenses to anyone who could drive competently enough irrespective of what their immigration status was as long as they had resided in Oregon for over one year. Whether or not they spoke English, not a big deal.

Allowing people to drive who do not know English is a danger to all Americans.

Immigration attorneys tell us that the bill had actually made it through state legislature and was signed into law in 2013. However, Oregonians for Immigration Reform, a group dedicated to pro-immigration enforcement acquired 58,000 signatures which allowed for a ballot initiative where the voters got to decide whether or not they wanted the proposed State Bill to actually translate into state law or not. The voting took place and the bill was overwhelmingly opposed by a large majority of people and hence turned down from actually being put into effect.

Common sense prevailed.

Woman from Miami-Dade Arraigned for Immigration Fraud

61 year old Josefa Siverio awaits trial after being slapped with federal immigration fraud charges. In her preliminary hearing, the woman pleaded not guilty to charges including mail fraud and theft of money orders and checks, according to a miamiherald.com report. 

Siverio is originally from Cuba and is the newest addition to the list of defendants in a case premised around immigration fraud that was uncovered by federal authorities in South Florida. 


According to allegations made by the US Attorney’s office, Siverio orchestrated the filing of as many as 146 fraudulent petitions and applications for her “clients” as a paid service. The lawsuit does not specify how much exactly the woman charged per filing and how much net profit she pocketed on the whole until she was apprehended for the same by federal authorities.

Siverio is not a licensed immigration lawyer and was not qualified to help or provide anyone with their legal immigration status. She is certainly not on the list of lawyers on the website found above and below linked to this article.

Venezuelan Immigration Fraud Suspect Terminates Lawyer’s Contract

Miamiherald.com reports that an exile Venezuelan woman charged with immigration fraud for filing fraudulent immigration applications and charging her immigrant customers for the same has fired her immigration lawyer after having pleaded not guilty during her initial hearing.

Venezuela is a socialist country (just like Bernie Sanders) who has killed jobs, wiped out opportunities for its citizens, stifled innovation, destroyed progress, and so on – this is what big government does. The Venezuelan government is also corrupt. They make the American IRS look like the Boy Scouts.

If you require help upgrading your immigration status or in acquiring a visa or work permit to enter the US, the best course of action would be to setup a meeting with an immigration lawyer as soon as time permits.
