LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Illegal immigrants can no longer get a Michigan driver's license, Attorney General Mike Cox ruled Thursday, reversing a practice that has come under increasing scrutiny post-Sept. 11.

Michigan has been one of seven states to allow undocumented immigrants to get driver's licenses. Attorney general opinions are legally binding on state agencies and officers unless reversed by the courts

Not mine yet
But to go from from 8 to 7 to 6 states, is good, but I'm ashamed of Maine's governor, BaldArchie, and of the two state Senators, Susan Collins and Olympia Snowe. They have had their moments in time but the time to go is now. Collins is up for re-election, god I hope we dump her butt. She's used up and needs to go, she is not for Maine anymore, she in in the shadows of our idiot governor......... We do have a great guy running with a hardcore immigration stance, his name is Dean Scontras. It helps that he is one georgous man!!!

6 is better than 8 or 9

I'm sure the others will cave before long

I'm waiting for Maryland to cave. The illegals have their own lines at the DMV in Maryland while the citizens take a number and waits. I get so upset everytime I go to the DMV and watch them come through the door and walk directly to the counter (with an interpreter) while I'm sitting there for hours waiting for my number to be called.

As a Maryland resident, I know how you feel. It’s like attending an invitation-only dinner party, and being told you can’t be served until a group of interlopers have been fed. Sheer lunacy.

I wonder if Michigan did this because of the following article/situation:

Fake ID leads to 'terror' arrest of Wyoming man

"GRAND RAPIDS -- The Michigan City (Indiana) News Dispatch reports a man arrested for using a fake ID at the Blue Chip Casino may be a suspected terrorist who lived illegally in Wyoming, Michigan.

Investigators believe he may be wanted in Colombia for "dangerous terrorism." Officials in Washington, D.C. ordered him held until federal agents could take him into custody.

The man identified as Antonio Cruz, 31, was scheduled to be charged for using a false identification Wednesday afternoon.

24 Hour News 8 learned federal officials have taken the case over from local authorities and will take the suspect from the county jail.

The man in custody had multiple IDs when questioned. One identification listed him as Castillo Luis, 45, but a second ID showed he was Antonio Cruz, 31, wanted for terrorism in Colombia.

He told police he was an illegal alien living in Wyoming, Michigan.

24 Hour News 8 tracked down the address Antonio Cruz was said to have been living at in Wyoming. The woman at the house said she knew him.

But when she saw his mug shot from the Indiana jail, she told 24 Hour News 8 that is not the same man she knew. The Antonio Cruz she knew is 52 and now lives in Florida.

Wyoming police said there is a warrant out for the arrest of another Antonio Cruz, one who has the same birthdate as the ID in Indiana. That Cruz is wanted for domestic assault in Wyoming. Plus, that Cruz told Wyoming police he was from Guatemala, not Colombia."
