"Unexpected" spike in driver's license demand

The 3 states, 2 next to Arizona that are not demanding a birth certificate for drivers license applications have seen a spike in applicants.
Utah, New Mexico, and Washington have seen a great increase in applications as people leave Arizona, or seek ID that may deflect police attention if they are pulled over or stopped.
In some states, the applications have nearly doubled and the argument against easing license requirements because they will attract illegals seem to be supported by this activity.
In New Mexico, even the Democrat running for Governor is calling for greater restrictions to prevent illegals from gaining a drivers license.

This new migration and the load it will place on already cash strapped states will likely lead to more changes in those states to restrict the freedoms of illegals and, ultimately, push them out.
