Bondi Files Lawsuit Against New York Over Green Light Law Amid Immigration Crackdown

In a significant escalation of his immigration policy, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced a lawsuit against New York, alleging its Green Light Law prioritizes illegal immigrants over citizens. The law allows undocumented individuals to obtain driver’s licenses, aimed at improving road safety and reducing uninsured driving. Bondi claims it obstructs federal immigration laws and highlights concerns over public safety. New York's leaders, including Governor Kathy Hochul and Attorney General Letitia James, vigorously defended the law, asserting it protects rights and enhances safety. The lawsuit follows similar actions against other states and reflects a renewed federal commitment to immigration enforcement.
