New York To Sue Over DHS' 'Trusted Traveler' Application Restrictions

The Department of Homeland Security has blocked New Yorkers from trusted traveler programs due to a state law allowing undocumented immigrants to obtain driver's licenses, which restricts federal access to certain information. Governor Andrew Cuomo plans to sue DHS, with support from the New York Civil Liberties Union, arguing that the move is an abuse of power. The ban is criticized for its potential to target individuals for deportation.
