Earlier this summer, Massachusetts lawmakers passed a bill that would allow undocumented immigrants to obtain legal driver’s licenses. Now, that legislation is threatened as Republican opponents have surpassed the number of signatures required to get a ballot measure in front of voters this November asking for their final say.

A political committee began the process to repeal a new law to allow undocumented immigrants to apply for driver’s licenses, just four days after legislators voted to make Massachusetts the 17th state to do that.
