Protesters Demand Driver's Licenses for Undocumented Immigrants in Massachusetts
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Boston, a group of undocumented families held a protest Tuesday
outside the home of Massachusetts House Speaker Bob De Leo after state
lawmakers failed to include an amendment in a racial justice bill that
would have granted undocumented people the right to get a driver's
license.

In Southern California, police working for the Union Pacific Railroad
will no longer collaborate with Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or
ICE, in detaining people and transferring them to federal custody.
