Quick Takes- Legislation Notice

February 17, 2005 | Filed Under Uncategorized |

The latest information on the September 11th hijackers reveals that Florida police stopped ringleader Mohamed Atta not once, but twice, in the two months prior to the attacks. But because Atta was able to produce a Florida state driver’s license, he was not detained. This is because Florida is one of 11 states that issue driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants, allowing them free travel — in Atta’s case, air travel — throughout the country. Rep. James Sensenbrenner’s HR418, the “Real ID Act,” aims to prohibit the issuance to illegal aliens of any form of identification usable for a federal purpose — such as boarding a commercial aircraft.
