White House sides with bill to bar illegal immigrants from using driver's licenses to board planes or enter federal facilities.
WASHINGTON – The Bush administration today gave a boost to a Republican-backed measure being debated on the House floor this week that would bar illegal immigrants from using driver's licenses to board airplanes or enter federal facilities.
All five GOP House members from Orange County have co-sponsored the measure.
"The administration strongly supports House passage of HR418, to strengthen the ability of the United States to protect against terrorist entry into and activities within the United States," said a policy statement issued today.
This is the first such sweeping support of the bill by President George W. Bush. How members vote on this measure could be the first indication of where lawmakers stand on the broader, more controversial issue of immigration reform.

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the `REAL ID Act of 2005'.
TITLE I--AMENDMENTS TO FEDERAL LAWS TO PROTECT AGAINST TERRORIST ENTRY
SEC. 101. PREVENTING TERRORISTS FROM OBTAINING ASYLUM.
(a) Conditions for Granting Asylum- Section 208(b)(1) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1158(b)(1)) is amended--
(1) by striking `The Attorney General' following the paragraph heading and inserting the following:
`(A) ELIGIBILITY- The Secretary of Homeland Security or the Attorney General';
(2) by striking `the Attorney General' each place such term appears and inserting `the Secretary of Homeland Security or the Attorney General'; and
(3) by adding at the end the following:
`(B) BURDEN OF PROOF-
`(i) IN GENERAL- The burden of proof is on the applicant to establish that the applicant is a refugee, within the meaning of section 101(a)(42)(A). To establish that the applicant is a refugee, within the meaning of such section, the applicant must establish that race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion was or will be a central reason for persecuting the applicant.
`(ii) SUSTAINING BURDEN- The testimony of the applicant may be sufficient to sustain the applicant's burden without corroboration, but only if the trier of fact determines that it is credible, is persuasive, and refers to specific facts that demonstrate that the applicant is a refugee. In determining whether the applicant has met the applicant's burden, the trier of fact is entitled to weigh the credible testimony along with other evidence of record. Where the trier of fact determines, in the trier of fact's discretion, that the applicant should provide evidence which corroborates otherwise credible testimony, such evidence must be provided unless the applicant does not have the evidence or cannot obtain the evidence without departing the United States. The inability to obtain corroborating evidence does not excuse the applicant from meeting the applicant's burden of proof.
`(iii) CREDIBILITY DETERMINATION- The credibility determination of the trier of fact may, in the trier of fact's discretion, be based, in addition to other factors, on the demeanor, candor, or responsiveness of the applicant or witness, the inherent plausibility of the applicant's or witness' account, the consistency between the applicant's or witness' written and oral statements, made at any time and whether or not under oath, the internal consistency of each such statement, the consistency of such statements with the country conditions in the country from which the applicant claims asylum, and any inaccuracies or falsehoods in such statements.'.
(b) Withholding of Removal- Section 241(b)(3) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1231(b)(3)) is amended by adding at the end the following:
`(C) SUSTAINING BURDEN OF PROOF; CREDIBILITY DETERMINATIONS- In determining whether an alien has demonstrated that the alien's life or freedom would be threatened for a reason described in subparagraph (A), the trier of fact shall determine whether the alien has sustained the alien's burden of proof, and shall make credibility determinations, in the manner described in clauses (ii) and (iii) of section 208(b)(1)(B).'.
(c) Standard of Review for Orders of Removal- Section 242(b)(4) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1252(b)(4)) is amended by adding at the end, after the final subparagraph, the following:
`No court shall reverse a determination made by a trier of fact with respect to the availability of corroborating evidence, as described in section 208(b)(1)(B) or 241(b)(3)(C), unless the court finds that a reasonable trier of fact is compelled to conclude that such corroborating evidence is unavailable.'.
(d) Clarification of Discretion- Section 242(a)(2)(B) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1252(a)(2)(B)) is amended--
(1) in the matter preceding clause (i), by inserting `and regardless of whether the judgment, decision, or action is made in removal proceedings,' after `other provision of law,'; and
(2) in clause (ii), by inserting `or the Secretary of Homeland Security' after `Attorney General' each place such term appears.
(e) Effective Dates-
(1) The amendments made by paragraphs (1) and (2) of subsection (a) shall take effect as if enacted on March 1, 2003.
(2) The amendments made by subsections (a)(3) and (b) shall take effect on the date of the enactment of this Act and shall apply to applications for asylum or withholding made on or after such date.
(3) The amendment made by subsection (c) shall take effect on the date of the enactment of this Act and shall apply to all cases in which the final administrative removal order was issued before, on, or after such date.
(4) The amendments made by subsection (d) shall take effect on the date of the enactment of this Act and shall apply to all cases pending before any court on or after such date.
(f) Repeal- Section 5403 of the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004 (Public Law 108-458) is repealed.
SEC. 102. WAIVER OF LAWS NECESSARY FOR IMPROVEMENT OF BARRIERS AT BORDERS.
