Rather than dealing with the multitude of crisis situations confronting the U.S., some Senators would rather save us from teen-age drivers.
According to the Orange County Register, a group of Senators & Representatives have introduced legislation establishing FEDERAL driver's licensing standards for beginning drivers. Wait, isn't that what the states' Departments of Motor Vehicles do? Not if these misguided lawmakers get their way.
If the bill is passed, states "would face gradual reductions in federal highway funding"* if they don't comply. Another power grab by the feds,(disguised as protecting us) and at the expense of state and individual rights.
Better buckle your seat belts, boys and girls, it's going to be a rough ride.
