WORCESTER, Mass. - Dalida Rocha was once an undocumented immigrant in Massachusetts. She said a drivers license would have helped her, as well as her friends and family, if she had one prior to becoming an American citizen. 

"Sometimes I had friends who needed help whether it was with childcare or whatever it is," Rocha said. "I just couldn't get to them because I wasn't allowed to access a driver's license even though I knew how to drive."

It's why Rocha is in favor of Ballot Question 4. The question references the Work and Family Mobility Act, which allows for undocumented immigrants in Massachusetts to obtain driver’s licenses and permits.

Rocha joined supporters at a canvas kick off Tuesday, which included Democrats Rep. Jim McGovern, Worcester Mayor Joe Petty, and Sen. Ed Markey.

"Everyone on the roads would be safer if everyone on the roads, including immigrants, have to pass a driver's test, have to get insurance," Markey said. "We'll at least know they know how to drive."

But opponents say the law incentivizes migrants to come here illegally. State Sen. Ryan Fattman (R-Worcester) called the law a mistake.

"Well there's nothing in Massachusetts law that says once I get my license, I also have to get insurance," Fattman said. "That's the prime reason why they're saying that there's going to be more safety."

Documentation is another concern of those who support a ‘no’ vote on the ballot question.  

"This is one of the governor's concerns," state Rep. Paul Frost (R-Worcester) said. "You're asking the Registry of Motor Vehicles to be foreign document experts."

Despite these concerns, the Democratic-led state legislature overrode Republican Gov. Charile Baker’s veto, passing the act earlier this year.

Rocha is hoping what she experienced doesn't happen to future immigrants in Massachusetts.

"The inability, the feeling that you feel of not being part of the community and not being able to support others, is indescribable," Rocha said.
