Senators in the House and the Senate introduced legislation on Feb. 13 that would block federal funds from states that allow illegal immigrants to obtain driver’s licenses.

Known as the “Stop Greenlighting Driver Licenses for Illegal Immigrants Act,” the bill would ban certain federal funding to sanctuary states, including those that “defy federal immigration enforcement or that allow illegal aliens to get driver licenses without proof of lawful presence.”
