What this bill would do

This bill, called the "Stop Greenlighting Driver Licenses for Illegal Immigrants Act," aims to limit certain federal grants to States. It targets States that give driver licenses to people without proof of U.S. citizenship or lawful presence. It also targets States that stop officials from sharing immigration enforcement information with the Department of Homeland Security. States that do these things must return unobligated Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant Program funds. These States will remain ineligible for those funds until they change their laws or policies.
