That's the gist of the latest response by House Democrats on dealing with Oregon's apparent drivers license problem.
Last week, the governor went public with his concerns that Oregon has become a magnet for unscrupulous people who need easy access to an official identification card. He said he wants the issue to be high on the Legislature's agenda when it convenes for a special session in February.
But he also indicated that he might look at ways he could tighten driver's license requirements without legislative approval.
Go for it, House Democrats said in a news release Tuesday.
The governor, without help from the Legislature, can require proof that someone is in the state legally before issuing a license, said Rep. Terry Beyer, chairwoman of the House Transportation Committee.
"We urge him to take immediate action to strengthen our driver's license documentation standards," Beyer said.
House Democrats said Kulongoski should change rules so the DMV no longer accepts foreign birth certificates, expired foreign passports or "Matricula Consular" cards issued by the Mexican Consulate.
Kulongoski spokeswoman Patty Wentz said the governor is looking at what can be done administratively. But she wasn't able to give a time estimate.
"We're working with the Department of Motor Vehicles and the Department of Justice to find out what our options are," Wentz said.
