It deals with people here illegally... 12 states and DC let people who are undocumented get a driver licenses. https://immigration.procon.org/view.resource.php?resourceID=005535
Then if the police stop someone, they just ignore the fact they are here illegally. They call them sanctuary cities on the news usually.
Seems like their logic is it safer to have people who know how to drive driving than driving illegally, even if they are here illegally. Then also if someone witnessed a crime, they might not come to police due to fear of being deported.
Kinda the same way states are allowing pot even though federally it's illegal... The feds aren't going after states it looks though, I remember hearing somthing Obama's justice department wasn't going to enforce it in states that allow it. But Trump's administration could always change their mind. Banks still can't let marijuana dispensaries do business with them however, so they have to keep and haul around large amounts of cash. They joked that some day one of them would get killed paying their taxes, and they'd make a law named after them. High Profits was a good documentary on CNN on this topic. Watched it on Netflix a few years ago.
Kinda interesting though, if you habor someone illegally and they murder someone. That code mentions that you are also subject to the same punishment. So if the mayor of a city allows illegals, and a illegal murders someone and gets sentenced to the federal death penalty. That mayor could also be sentenced to death too. Doesn't seem like the people in washington has ever gone that far to ever do that however, but it seems possible from my understanding.
