Faults state for not providing list of nonresidents
The state Republican Party today filed a lawsuit against the Taxation and Revenue Department over its request for the names of the 30,000 immigrants with New Mexico drivers licenses.
The party in July asked for a list of licenses that have been issued to people who are not citizens or legal residents of the United States.
In response, it got a largely blacked out stack of about 150 pages of documents.
"We're asking for the release of the withheld names," said Nina Martinez, the Republican Party secretary.
The party wants the list so it can compare it to a list of registered voters.
"We want to run them against voter registration rolls to make sure they aren't using their license to vote," she said.
