Attorney General Kamala Harris and the state bar filed briefs in support of giving Garcia his license. The Obama administration, on the other hand, opposes it, saying in its own legal filings that giving an undocumented immigrant a California law license ******** a 1996 federal law which denies giving "public benefits" to ******* immigrants.
"If you are in ********* of the law and your presence here is in ********* of the law, then your first step as an attorney, you're disrespecting the law," said Assemblyman Tim Donnelly, R-Twin Peaks.
But Garcia is anxious to help those who qualify fill out the paperwork even while his own case is in legal limbo.
