Blankenbush Condemns Green Light Law
A statement from Assemblyman Ken Blankenbush (R,C,I-Black River)
February 11, 2020
The Green Light Law that provides driver licenses for illegal immigrants took effect December 19, 2020. This law also institutes privacy protections designed to protect illegal immigrants from federal law enforcement agencies. Recently, the Department of Homeland Security decided to suspend Trusted Traveler Program enrollment for New Yorkers as a result of the Green Light Law.
Our governor needs to start putting the residents of New York state first. Im tired of hearing time and time again that illegal immigrants are receiving priority over our own citizens, said Blankenbush. Its outrageous that the Green Light Law will now be punishing our legal residents.
