Illegal immigrants in New York will be allowed to obtain New York State driver's licenses under a new policy that the Spitzer administration is expected to announce shortly, a source said.
"The facts show that restricting immigrants's access to driver's licenses does nothing to improve security," a spokeswoman for Mr. Spitzer, Christine Anderson, told the Associated Press in October. "All it does is drive immigrants into the shadows, creating a class of people with no public records."
Opponents of the proposed changes said restrictions on giving licenses to illegal immigrants help to prevent identity theft and thwart terrorist attacks. They note that the September 11, 2001 plane hijackers had at least 35 licenses, which helped them to rent cars and open bank accounts.

The part that votes Democrat.
Why would an illegal alien go after a legal driver’s license? They would be giving out their address to the government that, hopefully, one day will come after them. The cost of a counterfeit driver’s license, registration, and insurance is still cheaper than the legal way. If they get a ticket, they can toss it in the trash because there is no way to track them down. If they are involved in a hit-and-run accident, that illegal license plate makes it impossible to track them down. With illegal registration they don’t have to worry about passing smog tests which means they can use their limited mechanical ability to work on their own cars or hire one of their tax evading friends to do it. The fact that they only have a third grade education means they are illiterates, not idiots.
Elliot may want to give Gray Davis a call and asked how well that issue worked out for him.....
Note to the administration: Thanks so much for aiding and abetting this.
Then they will be allowed to vote according to the Clintonian Motor/Voter law.

So, you don't believe that. So what.
Looks like Cavuto’s fixing to discuss this on FNC....
“Drivers License is not a right, it is a privilege.”
Exactly!
Unbelieveable!! Even in New Jersey, since 9/11, the requirements for getting a driver’s license have increased...have to have a birth certificate, etc and marriage certificate (official) to show your change of name, etc.

When Spitzer was A.G., the signs were there:
“Yet, amazingly, New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer is threatening New York businesses that require their employees to show up for their scheduled shifts today, arguing that they generally cannot discipline those who boycott their jobs because attending rallies for illegal aliens is “protected” activity under federal labor law.
Spitzer’s claim is very misleading. First of all, in the Hoffman Plastics case, the Supreme Court held that the National Labor Relations Act does not allow illegal aliens to sue employers for backpay, since they have no legal entitlement to work in the United States.
Second, and more importantly, even if federal labor law defines attending a rally for illegal immigrants as a protected activity for “mutual aid and protection,” that only means that employees have license to attend such rallies on their own time. They cannot unilaterally take off work en masse and shut their employer down, since employers have a right to keep their businesses functioning.”

Here’s Eliot’s actual press release, where he threatens employers for requiring their employees to show up for work, rather than attending the ILLEGAL immigration rally:

“Immigrants in the shadows” is one of the BIG LIES, and any American living anywhere except the White House knows it.
