O'Malley Plans Separate Licenses For Undocumented

  Governor Martin O'Malley is developing a two-tiered driver's license system that would provided undocumented immigrants with a separate license.

The system would put Maryland in compliance with new federal security regulations.

Undocumented immigrants would not be able to use their license to board airplanes, enter federal buildings or cross borders. The proposal has prompted criticism from immigrant advocates as well as opponents of illegal immigration.

Six states have refused to comply and legislatures in more than a dozen other states have passed resolutions opposing the new regulations.
