LAS VEGAS, May 31 (Reuters) - Nevada's Republican governor signed a bill on Friday to authorize driving privilege cards for undocumented immigrants, a spokesman said on Friday.

The move appeared aimed at building bridges with the state's large and growing Hispanic community.

Governor Brian Sandoval, a moderate Republican of Mexican ancestry in a state where Hispanic residents comprise over a quarter of the population, signed the bill in a ceremony at the state capitol, according to a spokesman who posted images of the signing on Twitter.
