ACLU sues to give legal immigrants right to drive - Michigan

The American Civil Liberties Union is filing a lawsuit on behalf of six legal immigrants living in Michigan who want to be able to get state-issued driver’s licenses.

Legal immigrants who are not permanent residents have not been able to get driver’s licenses since late last month. It’s a policy change made by Secretary of State Terri Lynn Land based on an opinion from Attorney General Mike Cox.”*
