Re: What's Clinton's Position on Drivers Licenses for Illegals?

"They are driving on our roads. The possibility of them having an accident that harms themselves or others is just a matter of the odds -- it's probability."

I don't support the idea of giving a person(illegal alien) a license.

Until we get Comprehensive Immigration Reform. I think the practice of funding/training state/local police to handle and enforce Immigration status can be handled legally. If a person has violated a traffic law(ie no drivers license) a background check determines status-if in violation then a system of deportation from local to state to federal.

Local cops teaming up with federal immigration agents:
http://www.pbs.org/newshour/bb/law/j...ion_07-06.html

"But 20 state and local law enforcement agencies around the country are more assertive. Their officers routinely question criminal suspects about their immigration status, after first going through a federal program which essentially deputizes local police.

ICE has trained and authorized some 350 officers to question and detain people suspected of breaking federal immigration laws"

"ICE is expanding its cross-training program. Seventy-one law enforcement agencies around the country have either requested training or are receiving it, so their officers can do immigration checks"
