New York State Is Trying To Pass This Law For Undocumented Immigrants To Get This

New York State is trying to pass this law ASAP to allow undocumented immigrants to get their drivers licence. This is not to get political whatsoever, but that is nuts--my buddy can't even get his green card to move to Germany where is family already is. (Yet in New York people are here, undocumented and can get a licence.)

Though, it is what it is.

This is not a new fight either, this has been going on for years, but the legislative session ends in the beginning of Summer, so they have to make a decision in Albany before June! Of course, the motive behind the highly democratic New York, is money for the nearly 260,000 people that it would help:

If passed, the Driver License Access and Privacy Act would allow immigrants in the country illegally to get driver's licenses using a passport that was issued in another country as identification.

In instances when individuals are required to give a Social Security number, the law would then allow for them to sign an affidavit saying that they had not received one, but it would not prevent them from getting a license.

Advocates said the law would give immigrants an important right and avoid them driving illegally.

If passed, registration fees, sales taxes and gas taxes would add an estimated $57 million in annual state and county revenues, according to the New York Immigration Coalition, an advocacy group", according to WGRZ.
