Restricting Funds for States Issuing Driver Licenses to Undocumented Immigrants

This act aims to restrict federal funds for states that issue driver licenses to individuals without proof of U.S. citizenship or lawful presence. Such states may lose access to important justice program grants, potentially impacting local public safety initiatives. Additionally, the act requires states to share immigration status information with the federal government.
Key points
States issuing driver licenses to individuals without legal U.S. status will lose federal justice program funds.
States that prohibit sharing immigration enforcement information with the federal government will also lose these funds.
Loss of funds could impact the financing of local crime prevention and public safety programs.
