CPD congratulates our friends at the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights (ICIRR) for their successful advocacy to pass a statewide highway safety law, which will enable over 250,000 undocumented immigrants in Illinois to obtain drivers’ licenses – the first successful statewide effort of its kind in over a decade.

At the bill signing, ICIRR also announced the national campaign to enact federal immigration reform, which will create a road to citizenship for over 11 million undocumented immigrants nationwide.

We look forward to working with ICIRR and other partners across the country to ensure that this victory is the first step toward full equality and inclusion for immigrants across the country.
