The most effective solution to this problem would be to make eligibility for federal highway funds contingent upon the states' denying driver's licenses to illegal aliens.

I'm certainly not in favor of illegals having DLs. However, I am dead set against what this legislation will allow for: National ID Cards. What information will be encoded on them? What rights will be denied to you if you don't have one (like if it is lost or stolen)? What about counterfeit ID's and identity theft (now you will only have to make 1 item to steal an identity)? What about radio chips in the cards that can track all of our movements?

Sorry, I'm not ready to trade my basic rights for the illusion of security.

The proposal would not require a national I.D. www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1287840/posts

It would financially punish the states that could giva rip about illegal aliens.
