An Upstate New York clerk took his first legal step to fight a new state law that allows illegal immigrants in the country to obtain NY State drivers' licenses.On Tuesday, Erie County Clerk Michael "Mickey" Kearns sent a letter to the Erie County Attorney's Office, seeking legal representation."As I understand it, this Act requires that, as an agent of the Department of Motor Vehicles, I will be compelled to give driver's licenses to illegal immigrants," he wrote.

"Aw, not this retarded blog again. Why don’t you get a job?"

humblegunner,

If you can find an article about what the Erie County Clerk is doing, please post it.

I saw him on TV explaining his position, yet, haven't seen any articles posted about it here. There should be plenty to support him but, uhm, crickets.

I'm glad Monrose72 posted about it.

Agreed. Let the leftists have the 5 boroughs of NYC and Nausea County, LI. We’ll keep the rest and push out the remaining rats.

Loophole in law granting illegal immigrants driver’s licenses could lead to voter fraud
New York Post | 06/18/19 | By Bernadette Hogan, Nolan Hicks and Max Jaeger
FR Posted by Behind Liberal Lines

A loophole in the new law granting driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants could allow hundreds of thousands of people to fraudulently register to vote in New York, according to critics, the state Board of Elections and the bill’s own sponsor.
The Green Light Bill, which passed the Senate 33-29 Monday and was signed by Gov. Andrew Cuomo, allows illegal immigrants to obtain “standard” state driver’s licenses that can be used for identification and to board domestic flights.

But it is also the sole document required to register to vote, according to officials.
Even legislative sponsor Luis Sepúlveda (D-Bronx) admitted the provision could be abused.“Theoretically, they could have the ability to vote,” he said while arguing for the bill during a Monday hearing in Albany.

Voters need only provide a driver’s license number to register to vote, according to BOE spokesman John Conklin.
“If you have a driver’s license number, you basically stop there,” Conklin told The Post Tuesday of the vetting process.

HAT TIP MEWZILLA The problem for Albany is that the outflow from makers leaving is exceeding what they could make up for by importing takers. That’s why Albany has gone even more nuts with the bribes.But there is a way for conservatives in blue states to fight back.If the citizenship question is NOT on the census, refuse to participate if you live in a blue state.If enough of us do that, there’ll be chaos.

Why is NYS trying to force their cisgender, white, patriarchy on undocumented migrants by encouraging them to be documented?

REAL I’d law requires birth certificate, ssan verification, proof of residency etc. forwarded to DHS. Is NYS REAL I’d compliant?
Apparently not. Feds, where are you?

"We need to make it easier for areas within states to form their own states.”

Sorry but you cannot see the ramifications of what would happen down the road?

Every friggin' county would eventually be a "state' with liberals as well as conservatives wanting to splitt into their own state.

Nope, cannot support this.

Who are the members of the state Business Council?


Fine, upstanding NYS Republicans and members of the Chamber of Commerce.

“...The political split between...”

This is how it starts; one person with the guts to say “Hell no.”

Good for the Clerk.

NY state has acknowledged that their driver’s licenses are no longer REAL ID compliant. Their DMV has an option for an “enhanced” license that is compliant. This is how a lot of states that allow illegal aliens to get licenses work through the REAL ID requirements.

Thanks, & good grief!
Those names are CEOs of major corporations!!

Not just owners of shoestring mom & pop businesses, who I could almost forgive for hiring illegals to save a few dollars.

So are the CEOs just trying to save money by undercutting American workers?

Or is there some other message here? American workers unreliable, litigious, don’t want to work?

I’ve heard that hiring people who’ll show up, much less work, is the hardest part of running a business.

An aspiring journalist might want to interview some of those guys.
