Fued Over Driver's Licenses For aliens Continues
Feud over driver's licenses for aliens continues

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) - Republican Assembly leader James Tedisco says Osama bin Laden is likely popping champagne over Governort Spitzer's new plan to allow illegal immigrants to get New York driver's licenses.
Tedisco, joined by other Republican Assemblymen, says Republicans would sue if Spitzer and the Department of Motor Vehicles don't rescind the proposal by October 31. He claims Spitzer violated a state law in his policy.
Spitzer spokeswoman Christine Anderson calls the legal threat baseless, that state law gives the DMV discretion to determine what documents are required to prove a license applicant's identity.
Spitzer announced his plan last week and said it would bring "people out of the shadows" of American society when it goes into effect in December. Similar policies have been adopted in Utah, New Mexico and other states.
Republicans said Friday that giving licenses to illegal immigrants would threaten the state's security, allow for voter fraud and inconvenience the citizens of New York.
