Immigrant Driver's Licenses

Although there was no real movement on the attempt to keep illegal immigrants from getting driver's licences in the Maryland Legislature, legislation nationally is almost sure to pass which may give all immigrants the right to driver's licenses. Opponents to this say there's a national security concern while those for the measure say these illegal immigrants are a vital part of our economy and should be given access to drive.
