SANTA FE (AP) - A New York group is moving forward with plans to put up a billboard along Interstate 25 that suggests New Mexico’s driver’s license program is too lenient.

The billboard will depict a photograph of World Trade Center bomber Mohammad Atta’s Florida license and the caption, “Some States Made it Easy — Don’t License Terrorists, New Mexico.”

Amanda Bowman, the director of the Coalition for a Secure Driver’s License, says the billboard will be displayed between Albuquerque and Santa Fe before the end of the month.

New Mexico is one of eleven states that don’t require license applicants to prove their legal presence in the U.S.

Immigrant-rights groups argue there is no connection between the issuance of driver’s licenses to undocumented immigrants and terrorism.

WHo f'in cares about immigrants rights?? You KNOW they are referring to the illegals. The legal immigrants will have no problems going through the proper hoops in ANY state.. but these states want to make money off the illegals. As far as im concerned an illegal HAS NO RIGHTS WHATSOEVER in this country until they do it the right, legal way. The fact that they can get a US drivers licence is a joke...

Its all about the benjamins... When you have taken as much as you can from the people that live in your state, how do you get more? Look the other way while your state fills up with people who really shouldn't be there, and then hit them with your fees too.

Wasn't California doing something similar with illegal immigrants in the last year or so? I seem to remember them trying to hook illegals up with health insurance or something.. or counting them for census info or something, I forget.
