Honestly the best part about this is that somebody is going to sue to get this stopped and is encouraging boycotts. Let La Raza get a taste of its own medicine after SB1070 and all those "boycotts" they threatened!

It gives illegal immigrants false hope because it makes them think they could become legal," Avendano said. "But they're still illegal, and could be deported."
Illegals don't want to become legal. They're happy with the way things are now.

Insightful observation. Mexicans are not used to government 'strings' and will hate them like every freedom loving normal people would. Hopefully, if this legal abomination is not aborted, they will register as Republicans.
Inside every liberal is a frightened crying baby. Calls for 'government' solutions are cries for mama to chase away the scary monster under the bed.

I dont think a Utah work permit allows illegals to vote, but I guess they can become Republican if they wish...
