NJ rally demands driver’s licenses for undocumented immigrants

TRENTON — A few hundred people rallied Thursday outside the Statehouse in support of making undocumented immigrants eligible for New Jersey driver’s licenses, hoping to move the issue from the back-burner to the forefront of lawmakers’ minds as they return to Trenton after summer recess.

Around 500,000 people could get licenses if the change is approved, said Johanna Calle, director of the New Jersey Alliance for Immigrant Justice. She said that would increase the amount of revenue the state collects from new license-holders and improve road safety.
