The liberals in the Maryland General Assembly are at it again, wanting now to give driver’s licenses to undocumented and illegal immigrants. This is the wrong way to go, and illegal immigrants do not deserve or should be given driver’s licenses in the State of Maryland.
At a time when Maryland is furloughing and laying off state and local employees and cutting service and raising taxes we should not spend another nickel for illegal immigrants to let them drive on our highways and roads.

What Maryland calls the Fair Share Act isn’t fair at all
The Fair Share Act was passed in 2009. This law allowed for service fees to be part of the collective bargaining process.
The law does not mandate that service fees be negotiated, it simply provides that they can be. -
It’s not new
