BOSTON —
The Massachusetts Senate passed a bill Thursday that would allow undocumented residents to get driver's licenses in the state.

The vote in the senate Thursday afternoon was 32-to-8.

The bill passed overwhelmingly in the House in February by a vote of 120-to-36, which was enough to override a veto from Gov. Charlie Baker.

The House version would require individuals to provide documentation to obtain a license including proof of their identity, residency in the state and date of birth. The new rules would apply to those who do not have proof they are in the country legally, including those not eligible for a Social Security number.

Those seeking a license must present at least two documents. The first must be either a valid unexpired foreign passport or a valid unexpired consular identification.
