1,300 Young Illegals Receive Nebraska Driver's Licenses
Updated: Sun 11:15 AM, Aug 09, 2015
Nebraska has issued 1,300 driver's licenses to youths who were brought into the country illegally as children since the state became the last in the nation to let them apply.
The Department of Motor Vehicles says 427 licenses were issued in Douglas County from May 29th to August 5th and 133 in Lancaster County. The third-largest number issued was in Hall County.
The youths became eligible after Nebraska lawmakers voted in May to end the state ban on driving privileges for those who were allowed to stay in the U.S. under the federal deferred-action program.
The law applies to teens and adults who were brought to the U.S. illegally when they were underage and had no choice in the decision and could not legally get a driver's license in Nebraska.
Gov. Pete Ricketts vetoed the bill, saying it was wrong on principle, but the Legislature override his veto by a vote of 34-10.
Advocates say it helped put Nebraska in line with the rest of the country. Some new recipients say they're now able to drive to work and school and feel like they're part of the community.
