  • Driver's Licenses, State ID, and Michigan Immigrants
    Driver’s Licenses, State ID, and Michigan Immigrants DRAFT Introduction Since 2008, Michigan has required applicants for driver’s licenses and state identification to provide proof of U.S. citizenship or immigration status. This change was part of a series of post-9/11 changes, and has had significant consequences for all Michiganders who use the roads. Ten states, plus the District of Columbia, have already changed their laws to permit some form of legal driving without proof of immigration status.1 States have chosen to restore access to driver’s licenses irrespective of immigration status to address significant economic and public safety-related challenges posed by greatly-increased numbers of unlicensed drivers, including reductions the agricultural workforce, exclusion from the insurance market, This report highlights the economic and safety benefits to all Michigan residents of expanding access to driver’s licenses for all otherwise-eligible Michigan drivers. Section One describes the legal background, the federal REAL ID Act and states’ relationship to it; Section Two explores potential benefits to the State of Michigan by allowing more individuals to be eligible for state driver’s licenses and identification cards; and Section Three states specific recommended changes to Michigan law. Section 1: Background A. Background of Michigan Driver’s Licenses & REAL ID Act Compliance Prior to 2008, Michigan law contained no requirement that an applicant for a driver’s license or state ID card needed a specific immigration or citizenship status in order to be eligible. Applicants did have to submit documents that were sufficient to prove identity and establish state residency.

  • Expedited Removal of Aliens: Legal Framework
    Expedited Removal of Aliens: Legal Framework Updated October 8, 2019 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R45314 SUMMARY R45314 Expedited Removal of Aliens: Legal Framework October 8, 2019 The federal government has broad authority over the admission of non-U.S. nationals (aliens) seeking to enter the United States. The Supreme Court has repeatedly held that the government Hillel R. Smith may exclude such aliens without affording them the due process protections that traditionally Legislative Attorney apply to persons physically present in the United States. Instead, aliens seeking entry are entitled only to those procedural protections that Congress has expressly authorized. Consistent with this broad authority, Congress established an expedited removal process for certain aliens who have arrived in the United States without permission. In general, aliens whom immigration authorities seek to remove from the United States may challenge that determination in administrative proceedings with attendant statutory rights to counsel, evidentiary requirements, and appeal. Under the streamlined expedited removal process created by the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 and codified in Section 235(b)(1) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), however, certain aliens deemed inadmissible by an immigration officer may be removed from the United States without further administrative hearings or review. INA Section 235(b)(1) applies only to certain aliens who are inadmissible into the United States because they either lack valid entry documents or have attempted to procure their admission through fraud or misrepresentation. The statute generally permits the government to summarily remove those aliens if they are arriving in the United States.

    National Conference of State Legislatures TRANSPORTATION RE VI E W ENHANC E D DRIV E R 'S LIC E NS E S AND REAL ID: DRIV E R 'S LIC E NS E UPDAT E by Anne Teigen July 2009 Beginning June 1,2009, the 17 states that border Canada or Mexico and countless port cities will require U.S. citizens re-entering the United States by land or sea to show a passport or other approved document. Citizens from Canada and Mexico who enter the United States also will have to show approved documentation. These new requirements affect business and vacation travelers as well as industry. A state-issued, enhanced driver’s license can be issued to citizens who want to cross the borders without using a passport. Enhanced Driver’s Licenses and the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative The Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004 (IRTPA) mandates the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Department of State (DOS) to develop and implement a plan to require U.S. citizens and foreign nationals to present a passport or other appropriate identity and citizenship documentation when entering the United States from Canada, Mexico and other Caribbean countries. DHS and DOS developed the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI) to implement the congressional mandate. The initiative requires all U.S. citizens entering the United States at sea or land ports of entry to show proof of identity and proof of U.S. citizenship by presenting a passport, a passport card or other documents approved by the DHS.1 All U.S.

  • Immigration: Analysis of the Major Provisions Ofthe REAL ID Act of 2005
    Order Code RL32754 CRS Report for Congress Received through the CRS Web Immigration: Analysis of the Major Provisions of the REAL ID Act of 2005 Updated May 25, 2005 Michael John Garcia, Margaret Mikyung Lee, and Todd Tatelman Legislative Attorneys American Law Division Congressional Research Service ˜ The Library of Congress Immigration: Analysis of the Major Provisions the REAL ID Act of 2005 Summary During the 108th Congress, a number of proposals related to immigration and identification-document security were introduced, some of which were considered in the context of implementing recommendations made by the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States (also known as the 9/11 Commission) and enacted pursuant to the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004 (P.L. 108-458). At the time that the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act was adopted, some congressional leaders reportedly agreed to revisit certain immigration and document-security issues in the 109th Congress that had been dropped from the final version of the act. The REAL ID Act of 2005 was first introduced as H.R. 418 by Representative James Sensenbrenner on January 26, 2005, and passed the House, as amended, on February 10, 2005. The text of House-passed H.R. 418 was subsequently added to H.R. 1268, the Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Act for Defense, the Global War on Terror, and Tsunami Relief, 2005, which was introduced by Representative Jerry Lewis on March 11, 2005, and passed the House, as amended, on March 16, 2005. H.R. 1268 passed the Senate on April 21, 2005, as amended, on a vote of 99- 0, but did not include the REAL ID Act provisions.

  • Immigrants and Michigan Driver's Licenses
    Immigrants and Michigan Driver’s Licenses: Past, Present, and Future Updated: December 2018 Looking back: Michigan licenses issued regardless of immigration status Prior to 2008, Michigan law contained no requirement that an applicant for a driver’s license or state ID card needed a specific immigration or citizenship status in order to be eligible. Applicants did have to submit documents that were sufficient to prove their identity, and they had to show that they were residents of Michigan. A 1995 Michigan Attorney General Opinion stated that because the law had no immigration status requirement, an “illegal alien” could not be denied a driver’s license on that basis.1 The opinion also stated that there was no legal reason why an “illegal alien” could not be considered a resident of a state. In December of 2007, Attorney General Mike Cox issued a new opinion that reversed that finding.2 The 2007 opinion stated that an unauthorized immigrant cannot be considered a Michigan resident and, in fact, only a Lawful Permanent Resident, sometimes known as a “green card” holder, could be considered a Michigan resident under the law. Where we are: “legal presence” requirements and use of foreign licenses The Michigan Secretary of State implemented the 2007 AG opinion in early 2008. It had the immediate effect of denying licenses to all people who are undocumented. In addition, it excluded dozens of categories of legally present noncitizens who live and work in Michigan who have not been granted Lawful Permanent Resident status. To clarify who was

  • Terrorism and Asylum Seekers: Why the Real ID Act Is a False Promise Marisa S
    Working Paper Series Villanova University Charles Widger School of Law Year 2006 Terrorism and Asylum Seekers: Why the Real ID Act Is a False Promise Marisa S. Cianciarulo Villanova Law School, [email protected] This paper is posted at Villanova University Charles Widger School of Law Digital Repository. http://digitalcommons.law.villanova.edu/wps/art42 ARTICLE TERRORISM AND ASYLUM SEEKERS: WHY THE REAL ID ACT IS A FALSE PROMISE Marisa Silenzi Cianciarulo The Real ID Act, passed on May 11, 2005, is the first post –September 11 antiterrorism legislation specifically to target a group of vulnerable ind ivi duals to whom the United States has historically granted protection: asylum seekers. The passage of the Real ID Act led asylum advocates to wring their hands in despair and immigration restrictionists to clap their hands in glee. This Article argues that b oth sides of the debate may have been justified in their reactions, but not because of the immediate chilling impact on asylum that they seem to expect. With regard to requirements for establishing asylum eligibility, the Real ID Act, rather than imposing new, onerous restrictions on asylum, codifies case law upon which adjudicators, advocates, and gover nment attorneys have been relying for decades. However, several areas of poor drafting, combined with legislative history mischaracterizing the asylum sy ste m as a haven for terrorists and suicide bombers, may result in the denial of bona fide asylum applications. This Article provides concrete guidance for adjudicators, advocates, and government attorneys applying the Real ID Act to asylum cases. It examines the case law upon which some of the provisions are based and offers interpretations for unclear provisions.
