Governor Ricketts recently vetoed Legislative Bill\u00a0 947 (LB 947) to make illegal aliens who have been granted deferred action under President Obama\u2019s DACA program eligible to receive professional or commercial licenses in Nebraska. Last Wednesday, the Nebraska Legislature passed LB 947 with a 33-11 vote. To overrule Governor Ricketts veto of LB 947, the Legislature only needs 30 votes.<\/p>\n

In a letter to Senators last week, Governor Ricketts stated: \u201cBy circumventing our current immigration process, LB 947 undermines the rule of law and is unjust to all the immigrants, permanent residents, and naturalized citizens who legally followed the established process.\u201d Tell your Senator you agree with Governor Ricketts and that you want his veto to stand!<\/b><\/p>\n

Nebraska already doles out driver\u2019s licenses to DACA recipients and in-state tuition to illegal aliens.\u00a0 Please take a few minutes to <\/span>call your state Senator<\/a> and tell him or her that you have had enough of handing out benefits to illegal aliens. \u00a0There is no time to waste.\u00a0 Only with your help can we stop LB 947!<\/span><\/p>\n

Let YOUR senator know:<\/p>\n
