Jan Brewer: Alessandra Soler

Brewer Dept: PHOENIX Immigrant rights advocates filed a lawsuit Thursday that seeks to overturn Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer s order denying driver s licences to young immigrants who have gotten work permits and avoided deportation under a new Obama administration policy, according to The Chronicle Herald. Alessandra Soler, executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union in Arizona, one of the groups that filed the lawsuit, said Brewer is playing politics with the immigrants and the lawsuit alleges the state has in effect classified young-adult immigrants as not having permission to be in the country and asks a federal judge to declare Brewer s policy unconstitutional because it s trumped by federal law and denies licenses without valid justification.
