Illinois has crossed the line, granting driver’s licenses and special privileges to illegal immigrants in brazen defiance of federal law. House Bill 3882 paves the way for noncitizens to obtain standard licenses, sending a dangerous message that our immigration laws are meaningless and illegal behavior will be rewarded. These new licenses, despite carrying the words ‘Federal Limits Apply,’ undermine national security as they don’t qualify as REAL ID for travel purposes. Supporters claim it eliminates barriers, but it’s a smokescreen masking the consequences. Granting licenses to violators undermines our system’s integrity and jeopardizes the safety of American citizens. Moreover, it creates unfair advantages, stigmatizes legal citizens, and erodes our society’s foundations. Illinois’s disregard for the rule of law continues with Bill 3751, allowing non-U.S. citizens in law enforcement, a clear violation of federal law. As the border crisis unfolds, Illinois doubles down on misguided policies, prioritizing noncitizens over American citizens. It’s a dangerous precedent that compromises our security. We must hold officials accountable.
