Erie County Clerk Kathleen Hochul says she'll follow Gov. Eliot Spitzer's directive to accept driver's license applications from illegal immigrants.

Then she'll follow the law, she said, and report the applicants to authorities for possible arrest and deportation. "We just don't want to be in any sense facilitating the furtherance of illegal activity, and that's really what we're being asked to do," Hochul said Thursday.

Let me be the first to nominate Kathleen Hochul as our next Republican NYS governor.

From what I’ve seen on the news these county clerks in New York state are pretty much in opposition to this scheme. In Tennessee, the state finally repealed licenses for illegals. The licenses created more problems than they solved, including a rise in hit-and-runs, a rise in uninsured motorist accidents, an increase in these IDs being used in check forgery and other scams. Finally after a series of fatal accidents involving illegals the state stopped issuing these licenses.
