Anti-illegal is a rare consensus issue that cuts across party lines.
Dem Sen Durbin tried to fault Repubs when he failed to get Amnesty Two (added to the Defense Bill) passed.
Dems are reticent to enact illegal freebies----they are hearing the same anti-ilegal rhetoric from their constituents.
Spitzer slams critics of licenses for illegals
More good news as additional state senators and assemblymen come out against the madness:
Local representatives object to illegal-alien drivers licenses
Officials rip Spitzer on alien licenses

Eliot Spitzer and the Department of Motor Vehicles to immediately rescind a policy that allows illegal aliens to obtain driver's licenses, or face a lawsuit.
