A federal judge on Tuesday dismissed a lawsuit the U.S. Department of Justice filed challenging a New York law that President Donald Trump’s administration said was impeding immigration enforcement.
U.S. District Judge Anne Nardacci in Albany rejected, opens new tab the Justice Department’s arguments that a New York law that restricts the ability of the Democratic-led state’s Department of Motor Vehicles to share vehicle and address information with federal immigration authorities violated the U.S. Constitution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The ruling was hailed on social media by New York Attorney-General Letitia James, a Democrat whose office defended the state\u2019s law against what she said was a \u201cbaseless\u201d lawsuit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She, along with Governor Kathy Hochul, was among three state officials named as defendants in the case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs I said from the start, our laws protect the rights of all New Yorkers and keep our communities safe,\u201d Ms James said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Justice Department declined to comment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

US Attorney-General Pam Bondi announced the lawsuit at a press conference in February as part of a legal campaign the Republican President\u2019s administration has waged over laws adopted by so-called \u201csanctuary jurisdictions\u201d run by Democrats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The lawsuit took aim at a state law known as the Driver\u2019s License Access and Privacy Act, or the \u201cGreen Light Law\u201d, which the state enacted in 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That law directed the state\u2019s Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to accept various foreign documents as proof of identification and age for standard licences and barred the state agency from inquiring about the immigration status of applicants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Justice Department under Mr Trump alleged the law was impeding its ability to address a \u201ccrisis of illegal immigration\u201d and argued the law interfered with the enforcement of federal immigration laws in New York.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It argued the federal immigration law pre-empted the state law and that New York\u2019s law impermissibly regulates the federal government in violation of the US Constitution. The Justice Department asked the judge to block its enforcement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But Ms Nardacci, who was appointed by Democratic former president Joe Biden, said the administration had failed to plausibly allege the law ran afoul of the Constitution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She said the administration could point to no federal statute requiring New York to provide DMV information for standard licence applicants to federal immigration authorities. REUTERS<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
