While the business lobby and New York Democrats unite to give driver’s licenses to illegal aliens in the state, voters living upstate and in suburban neighborhoods are revolting against the plan.

The New York state Senate is expected to pass a measure, already passed by the state Assembly, giving driver’s licenses to illegal aliens living across the state. The plan, supported by the open borders lobby and state Democrats, received the blessing of the state’s business lobby.

The Business Council of New York State announced support for the plan, saying it is necessary to promote a nationwide amnesty for all 11 to 22 million illegal aliens living in the U.S….

New York’s suburbanites and upstate voters, though, reject giving driver’s licenses to illegal aliens. The latest Siena College poll revealed that a majority of all New York voters, 53 percent, oppose the plan….

Between 82 and 84 percent of Republican and conservative voters in the state said they oppose giving driver’s licenses to illegal aliens and almost six-in-ten voters between the ages of 35 and 54-years-old said they, too. opposed the plan.

Even among voters in New York City, considered deeply liberal, the driver’s licenses for illegal aliens plan does not have broad support. Though 46 percent of New York City voters said they supported the effort, another 45 percent said they opposed it. Close to four-in-ten Democrat voters across New York said they oppose the plan, with about 53 percent voicing their support.

New York state is home to at least 725,000 illegal aliens, making it the fourth most illegal-populated state in the county, following California, Texas, and Florida.

Here is information on what other states have done:

It seems that since the federal government has not dealt with the illegal immigration problems, the states have found various solutions to the problem of having unlicensed drivers on the road. Although it undeniably supports illegal immigration by allowing them to get jobs where they are hired to drive, it also supplies a data base of identities. The states who support the license believe that they are protecting the citizens
from the dangers of unlicensed drivers on the road.

I pray that our federal government steps up with wisdom, compassion and integrity to deal with the problem of illegal immigration. May God raise up godly leaders to take on creating the needed legislation and corresponding budgets. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.
