The "Josing" of America CNN's Maria Hinojosa Advocates for Licenses for Illegals Maria Hinojosa talks to illegal aliens - in Spanish. CNN 'Daybreak' - December 9 Hinojosa: I asked some of them, how can the U.S. protect its borders if it provides them with a valid ID, even when they are in this country illegally.

But by giving us an ID and license then they would have a lot more control over who we are and what we do. American Patrol: What nonsense. They don't want us to control the borders, and giving illegal aliens drivers licenses gives us no control over who they are and less control over what they do.
