New Law Blocks Arrest Of Unlicensed Drivers In Cambridge Mass.

Undocumented immigrants will not be arrested for driving without a license under a new Cambridge, Mass. law aimed at protecting those illegally residing in the country from the grasp of the federal government.

The new law, passed unanimously by the city legislature, directs police in Cambridge to issue a court summons to an undocumented individual driving without a license instead of arresting them, although the driver may be arrested for other legal complications, such as active or outstanding warrants.

No license, no registration, no insurance, no bail, no jail. And this ideology is in the best interest of the general public at large...NOT!

Above the law of an U.S. Citizen. Liberal Elites are trying to circumvent their own law to accommodate illegal immigrants! No borders mean no country!

Putting the undocumented immigrant aside for a moment, how many people would risk driving without insurance and no license who barely speak English? Nice to pass a law, but is this really a pressing issue in Cambridge Mass? Really?

Many of them is the answer and how do I know this .... They are undocumented so they came here illegally. You think not having insurance and a license is going to stop them ... Think Again

@rick CC is a dimwit who needs to watch LivePD for the proof. CC lives in his snooty white privilege world and assuages his white guilt by supporting idiotic policies like this.

@MD for a guy who pretends to be bright you don't see the stupidity in this new law. This is like passing a new law to force people to keep their elephants on a leash and poop and scoop when they walk them, regardless of the fact it is illegal to own an elephant in Mass.

Do you see it now? This new law won't be used. EVER.

No, asshole, YOU don't see.

This law gives special treatment to illegals who are guilty of an international crime: it is illegal to enter a country without papers. This law discriminates against legal citizens. This is unequal protection under the law and not only does it violate civil rights laws, it violates The Constitution.

There will be massive ICE arrests after Trump's landslide victory.

PS: I didn't mention you to him today. He stopped by.

Not all of them @xuj1987a. One city council, in one state in the entire union made this decision. Stay positive and centered. The law is very odd and may be repealed now that it has made the national news.

Sarcastically I ask, what the f***k is an "undocumented immigrant"?

The funniest part of all of this discussion is American posters complaining when you already know States and apparently US Cities have very broad powers under the US Constitution. This city in Mass is quite within its rights to make this crazy law even if you don't like it. Stomp your feet as much as you like.

Meanwhile in Canada, we have a Provincial (State) level Highway Traffic Act. No city has the power to change it. Everyone has to follow it and everyone would get arrested or fined for a violation. No exceptions whatsoever. As well, cities are said to be "creatures" of the Province and it retains the power to amalgamate them, wipe them off the map and or change anything about them they want.

This law could never be passed in Canada and likely the UK and many other Commonwealth Countries with a Parliamentary system of Government.

Happy 4th of July !

I'm actually not sure this is legal CC. Borders and immigration are Federal issues and the last Admin was all about illegals and flying them all over the nation planting them in areas where they might vote some day. So you have one pathetic loser as a president who allows this type of behavior and you have another awesome President who upholds the laws (part of the oath of office). So Sanctuary cities, this crap in Mass, etc... is rogue behavior that needs to be nipped in the bud... I expect it will once President Trump destroys the next DemoRat Chump candidate...

@xjug1987a- Fair point.

But I really doubt the whole city council would have voted in favour of this and have it approved by the Mayor, head of the Legal department etc. There are too many checks, balances and liability issues for this to just be a fluff vote. It's real. And because of State and City rights, no President will be able to do much about it unless you change your Constitution somehow or if pressure by the citizen of Cambridge push to have it changed one day. It is a strange one that is for sure...
